Pristine graphene and graphene-based heterostructures exhibit exceptionally high electron mobility and conductance if their surface contains few electron-scattering impurities. Here, we reveal a universal connection between graphene's…

Electron transport in a disordered graphene nanoribbon with zigzag edges is crucially affected by a perfectly conducting channel (PCC), which is stabilized if intervalley scattering is ignorable. In the presence of such a PCC, the…

Weak impurity scattering produces a narrow band with a finite density of states near the phase difference $\phi =\pi$ in the mid-gap energy spectrum of a macroscopic superconducting weak link. The equivalent distribution of transmission…

Unitary limit for model point scatterers in graphene is known to reveal low-energy resonances. The same limit could be achieved from hybridization of band electrons with the localized impurity level positioned in the vicinity of the Fermi…

We study how low-energy charge carriers scatter off periodic and linear graphene grain boundaries oriented along the zigzag direction with a periodicity three times greater than that of pristine graphene. These defects map the two Dirac…

The influence of carrier density on magnetism in a zigzag graphene nanoribbon is studied in a $\pi$-orbital Hubbard-model mean-field approximation. Departures from half-filling alter the magnetism, leading to states with charge density…

The pseudo-magnetic field generated by mechanical strain in graphene can have dramatic consequences on the behavior of electrons and holes. Here we show that pseudo-magnetic field fluctuations present in crumpled graphene can induce…

Using scanning tunneling microscopy, we have imaged local charge density fluctuations in monolayer graphene. By placing a small gold nanoparticle on the end of the STM tip, a charge sensor is created. By raster scanning the tip over the…

We investigate the contribution of charge puddles to the non-vanishing conductivity minimum in disordered graphene flakes at the charge neutrality point. For that purpose, we study systems with a geometry that suppresses the transmission…

We study the scattering of graphene quasiparticles by topological defects, represented by holes, pentagons and heptagons. For the case of holes, we obtain the phase shift and found that at low concentration they appear to be irrelevant for…

Graphene on a dielectric substrate exhibits spatial doping inhomogeneities, forming electron-hole puddles. Understanding and controlling the latter is of crucial importance for unraveling many of graphene's fundamental properties at the…

The low-energy spectrum of graphene nanoribbons with armchair edges (armchair nanoribbons) is described as the superposition of two non-equivalent Dirac points of graphene. In spite of the lack of well-separated two valley structures, the…

The conductivity and Hall effect were measured in CVD-grown monolayer graphene as a function of the gate voltage, $V_{g}$, at temperatures down to $T$ = 2 K and in magnetic fields up to $B$ = 8 T. The minimal conductivity was observed at…

We perform electrical transport measurements in graphene with several sample geometries. In particular, we design ``invasive'' probes crossing the whole graphene sheet as well as ``external'' probes connected through graphene side arms. The…

Charge carrier scattering is critical to the electrical properties of two-dimensional materials such as graphene, transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers, black phosphorene, and tellurene. Beyond pristine two-dimensional materials,…

It is widely believed that carrier-density inhomogeneities ("electron-hole puddles") in single-layer graphene on a substrate like quartz are due to charged impurities located close to the graphene sheet. Here we demonstrate by using a…

Graphene is described at low-energy by a massless Dirac equation whose eigenstates have definite chirality. We show that the tendency of Coulomb interactions in lightly doped graphene to favor states with larger net chirality leads to…

In the theoretical analyses of impurity effects in superconductors the assumption is usually made that all quantities, except for the Green functions, are slowly varying functions of energy. When this so-called Fermi Surface Restricted…

We develop a theory for the compressibility and quantum capacitance of disordered monolayer and bilayer graphene including the full hyperbolic band structure and band gap in the latter case. We include the effects of disorder in our theory,…

We study the problem of Coulomb field-induced charging of the ground state in a system of 2D massive Dirac particles (gapped graphene). As in its 3D QED counterpart, the critical Coulomb coupling is renormalized to higher values, compared…
