Influence of correlated impurities on conductivity of graphene sheets: Time-dependent real-space Kubo approach

Abstract: Numerical calculations of the conductivity of graphene sheets with random and correlated distributions of disorders have been performed using the time-dependent real-space Kubo formalism. The disorder was modeled by the long-range Gaussian potential describing screened charged impurities and by the short-range potential describing neutral adatoms both in the weak and strong scattering regimes. Our central result is that correlation in the spatial distribution for the strong short-range scatterers and for the l… Show more

“…Second, a similar increase of the Dirac point conductivity with defect density has been also reported in the diffusive regime of two-dimensional disordered graphene in the presence of vacancies or adatoms [119,102]. These results contrast with the semiclassical conductivity found with the Boltzmann approach [125,35,126,127,128], and suggest the absence of quantum interferences and localization effects observed for other types of disorder [72,129,130]. Finally, transport experiments in intentionally damaged graphene also report on puzzling conductivity fingerprints, whose physical origin remains to be fully understood [131,132].…”

“…Scaling analysis (ξ(E) = ℓ e (E) exp(πhσ sc (E)/2e 2 ) [114]) reveals that ξ ≃ 1 − 10 µm over a large energy window around the charge neutrality point. This contrasts with the values (on the order of 10 nm) obtained for graphene structures with ∼ 1% structural defects, strongly bonded adatoms, or other types of short range impurities [72,129]. Finally, we move on to the charge carrier mobility µ(n) (Fig.…”

“…3 This conclusion was based on the semi-classical predictions relying on the standard Boltzmann approach within the Born approximation. 4 At the same time, numerical calculations within the time-dependent real-space KuboGreenwood formalism showed 5 that correlation in the spatial distribution of short-and long-ranged point defects do not lead to any enhancement of the conductivity in comparison to the uncorrelated case.…”
