We obtain results which are qualitatively in agreement with many features recently observed in transport measurements on high mobility suspended graphene. The conductivity \\sigma at high temperature T and low density n grows linearly with T, while at high n we find \\sigma ~ |n|^1/2 with negative corrections at small T due to the T-dependence of the chemical potential. At moderate densities the conductivity is a non-monotonic function of T and n, exhibiting a minimum at T=0.693 \\hbar v |n|^1/2 where v is the Fermi velocity. We discuss two kinds of Fabry-Perot oscillations in short nanoribbons and their stability at finite temperatures.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-09-18T10:01:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "73.50.-h", "72.10.-d" ], "keywords": [ "ballistic graphene", "temperature dependence", "conductivity", "landauer transport theory", "high mobility suspended graphene" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review Letters", "year": 2009, "month": "Nov", "volume": 103, "number": 19, "pages": 196801 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009PhRvL.103s6801M" } } }
