چکیده

We develop an effective medium theory to study the electrical transport properties of disordered graphene. The theory includes nonlinear screening and exchange-correlation effects allowing us to consider experimentally relevant strengths of the Coulomb interaction. Assuming random Coulomb impurities, we calculate the electrical conductivity as a function of gate voltage describing quantitatively the full cross over from the fluctuations dominated regime around the Dirac point to the large doping regime at high gate voltages. We find that the conductivity at the Dirac point is strongly affected by exchange-correlation effects.

Temperature Effect on Vibration Analysis of Annular Graphene Sheet Embedded on Visco-Pasternak Foundati

In this study, the vibration behavior of circular and annular graphene sheet embedded in a Visco-Pasternak foundation and coupled with temperature change and under in-plane pre-load is studied. The single-layered annular graphene sheet is coupled by an enclosing viscoelastic medium which is simulated as a Visco- Pasternak foundation. By using the nonlocal elasticity theory and classical plate t...

Electronic Transmission Wave Function of Disordered Graphene by Direct Method and Green's Function Method

We describe how to obtain electronic transport properties of disordered graphene, including the tight binding model and nearest neighbor hopping. We present a new method for computing, electronic transport wave function and Greens function of the disordered Graphene. In this method, based on the small rectangular approximation, break up the potential barriers in to small parts. Then using the f...

Graphene Carrier Transport Theory

This chapter describes the theory of carrier transport in two dimensional graphene sheets. At high carrier density, the conductivity of graphene depends on carrier density, the dielectric constant of the substrate and the properties of the impurity potential, which can all can be treated using the Boltzmann transport formalism. At low carrier density, disorder causes the local random fluctuatio...
