Graphene hosts a unique electron system in which electron-phonon scattering is extremely weak but electron-electron collisions are sufficiently frequent to provide local equilibrium above liquid nitrogen temperature. Under these conditions,…

We calculate the heat flux and electron-phonon thermal conductance in a disordered graphene sheet, going beyond a Fermi's Golden rule approach to fully account for the modification of the electron-phonon interaction by disorder. Using the…
