We have investigated the behavior of the resistance of graphene at the $n=0$ Landau Level in an intense magnetic field $H$. Employing a low-dissipation technique (with power $P<$3 fW), we find that, at low temperature $T$, the resistance at…

In the vicinity of the Fermi energy, the band structure of graphene is well described by a Dirac equation. Impurities will generally induce both a scalar potential as well as a (fictitious) gauge field acting on the Dirac fermions. We show…
