Scientific paper

In this paper, we describe in detail the theory of scanning tunneling spectroscopy in graphene in the presence of adatoms, magnetic or not, with localized orbitals of arbitrary symmetry, corresponding to any given angular momentum state. We show that quantum interference effects which are naturally inbuilt in the honeycomb lattice, in combination with the orbital symmetry of the localized state, allow scanning tunneling probes to characterize adatoms and defects in graphene.
