Theory of carrier transport in bilayer graphene

Abstract

We develop a theory for density, disorder, and temperature dependent electrical conductivity of bilayer graphene in the presence of long-range charged impurity scattering as well as an additional short-range disorder of independent origin, establishing that both scattering mechanisms contribute significantly to determining bilayer transport properties. We find that although strong screening properties of bilayer graphene lead to qualitative differences with the corresponding single layer situation, both systems exhibit the linearly density dependent conductivity at high density and the minimum graphene conductivity behavior around the charge neutrality point due to the formation of inhomogeneous electron-hole puddles induced by the random charged impurity centers.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure
