Exact 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 regime. Our central result is that correlation in the spatial
distribution for the strong short-range scatterers and for the long-range
Gaussian potential do not lead to any enhancement of the conductivity in
comparison to the uncorrelated case. Our results strongly indicate that the
temperature enhancement of the conductivity reported in the recent study (Yan
and Fuhrer, Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, 206601 (2011)) and attributed to the effect
of dopant correlations was most likely caused by other factors not related to
the correlations in the scattering potential.Comment: 14 pages, 10 figure
