Abstract

In this work we alternate breaking-symmetry-substrates (BSS) and non-breaking-symmetry-substrates (NBSS) such as SiC and SiO2,following the Silver-Mean (MSMGS) and Period-Doubling (MPDGS) sequences. We implement the Transfer Matrix technique to calculate the transmittance and the linear-regime conductance as a function of the most relevant parameters of the multilayered graphene structures: energy and angle of incidence, widths of BSS and NBSS regions and the generation of the quasi-regular sequence. We analyze the main difference of the transmission and conductance properties between MSMGS and MPDGS.
