We report drag measurements on dilute double layer two-dimensional hole systems in the regime of r_s=19~39. We observed a strong enhancement of the drag over the simple Boltzmann calculations of Coulomb interaction, and deviations from the…
We report the observation of Coulomb drag between a two-dimensional (2D) electron gas in graphene and a one-dimensional (1D) wire composed of a carbon nanotube. We find that drag occurs when the bulk of graphene is conducting, but is…

The Coulomb drag is a many-body effect observed in proximized low-dimensional systems. It appears as emergence of voltage in one of them upon passage of bias current in another. The magnitude of drag voltage can be strongly affected by…
Motivated by the physics of graphene, we consider a model of N species of 2+1 dimensional four-component massless Dirac fermions interacting through a 3D instantaneous Coulomb interaction. We show that in the limit of infinitely strong…
Massless Dirac fermions in graphene at charge neutrality form a strongly interacting system in which both charged and neutral (energy) modes play an important role. These modes are essentially decoupled in the absence of a magnetic field,…
We develop a theory of Coulomb drag due to momentum transfer between graphene layers in a strong magnetic field. The theory is intended to apply in systems with disorder that is weak compared to Landau level separation, so that Landau level…
The presence of pronounced electronic correlations in one-dimensional systems strongly enhances Coulomb coupling and is expected to result in distinctive features in the Coulomb drag between them that are absent in the drag between…
