Abstract

The electronic energy level structure of the corrugated graphene electron subjected to a magnetic field tilted with respect to the graphene plane and an in-plane homogeneous magnetic field is investigated theoretically within the perturbation framework. It is shown that the anisotropy induced by the tilted magnetic field strongly modifies the Fermi velocity of the corrugated graphene electron, and the corrugated structure yields intrinsic Weiss oscillations in both Fermi velocity and the graphene Landau levels.
