This research aims to investigate orbital magnetism in multilayer graphenes using the effective mass approximation.
Theoretical analysis using the effective mass approximation.
Decomposition of the Hamiltonian and susceptibility into contributions from monolayer and bilayer graphene subsystems.
Examination of subband behaviors at different layer numbers.
Monolayer-type subband exists only in odd layers and has delta-function susceptibility at {ε_F}=0.
Bilayer-type subband produces a singular structure near {ε_F}=0 due to trigonal warping.
Integral of susceptibility over energy is dependent solely on the layer number.
