Magnetoresistance of monolayer graphene with short-range scattering

Original · EN

We present magnetotransport measurements at classical magnetic fields for three graphene monolayers with various levels of disorder. A square root magnetoresistance (SRMR) behavior is observed in one sample which has the characteristic sub-linear conductivity signaling on the presence of short-range disorder in this sample. No square root MR was observed in other samples where short-range scattering is inessential as it is evident from the gate voltage dependences of their conductivities. Comparing our experimental data for the sample with theoretical calculations we found a good qualitative agreement and established the conditions which should be fulfilled in graphene to observe the SRMR experimentally.
