Using the non-equilibrium Green's function method and the Landauer-B\\\"{u}ttiker formalism, the conductance is studied for the cases of clean, on-site, and edge disordered bilayer graphene. We show that the lowest Hall plateau remains unchanged in the presence of disorder, whereas asymmetry destroys both the plateaus and conductance quantization. In addition, we show that disorder induces an enhancement of the conductance in the n-p region in the presence of magnetic fields. Finally, we show that the equilibration of quantum Hall edge states between distinctively doped regions causes Hall plateaus to appear in the regime of complete mode mixing.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-02-17T13:19:36.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "73.63.-b", "72.80.Ng", "81.05.ue", "05.60.Gg" ], "keywords": [ "magnetic field", "conductance", "hall plateau remains", "non-equilibrium greens function method", "quantum hall edge states" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "doi": "10.1103/PhysRevB.83.125433", "year": 2011, "month": "Mar", "volume": 83, "number": 12, "pages": 125433 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011PhRvB..83l5433H" } } }
