Weak localization in graphene is studied as a function of carrier density in the range from 1 x $10^{11}$\,cm$^{-2}$ to 1.43 x $10^{13}$\,cm$^{-2}$ using devices produced by epitaxial growth onto SiC and CVD growth on thin metal film. The…

We show how the weak field magneto-conductance can be used as a tool to characterize epitaxial graphene samples grown from the C or the Si face of Silicon Carbide, with mobilities ranging from 120 to 12000 cm^2/(V.s). Depending on the…

In this theoretical study, we explore the manner in which the quantum correction due to weak localization is suppressed in weakly-disordered graphene, when it is subjected to the application of a non-zero voltage. Using a nonequilibrium…
