We have examined the impact of charged impurity scattering on charge carrier transport in bilayer graphene (BLG) by deposition of potassium in ultra-high vacuum at low temperature. Charged impurity scattering gives a conductivity which is supra-linea
r in carrier density, with a magnitude similar to single-layer graphene for the measured range of carrier densities of 2-4 x 10^12 cm^-2. Upon addition of charged impurities of concentration n_imp, the minimum conductivity Sigma_min decreases proportional to n_imp^-1/2, while the electron and hole puddle carrier density increases proportional to n_imp^1/2. These results for the intentional deposition of potassium on BLG are in good agreement with theoretical predictions for charged impurity scattering. However, our results also suggest that charged impurity scattering alone cannot explain the observed transport properties of pristine BLG on SiO2 before potassium doping.
