Abstract
We demonstrate that the phenomenon of current confinement along graphene junctions at high magnetic fields can be used to form an Aharonov-Bohm interferometer. The interference system exploits a closed junction that can be induced by a floating gate within the sample, and coupling of the junction currents with the edge currents in the quantum Hall regime. Operation of the device requires current splitting at the edge and the junction contacts which is found for armchair ribbons at low Fermi energy.
