We apply the semi-classical quantum Boltzmann formalism for the computation of transport properties to multilayer graphene. We compute the electrical conductivity as well as the thermal conductivity and thermopower for Bernal-stacked multilayers with an even number of layers. We show that the window for hydrodynamic transport in multilayer graphene is similar to the case of bilayer graphene. We introduce a simple hydrodynamic model which we dub the multi-fluid model and which can be used to reproduce the results for the electrical conductivity and thermopower from the quantum Boltzmann equation.

Multilayer graphene (MLG) thin films are deposited on silicon oxide substrates by mechanical exfoliation (or scotch-tape method) from Kish graphite. The thickness and number of layers are determined from both Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Raman S pectroscopy. Electrical terminals are deposited on MLGs in a four-probe configuration by electron-beam lithography, gold/titanium thermal evaporation, and lift-off. The electrical resistance is measured from room temperature down to 2 K. The electrical resistance of the MLGs shows an increase with decreasing temperature, and then decreases after reaching a maximum value. These results are compared with recent experimental and theoretical data from the literature.

The exceptionally high mobility of carriers in graphene is one of its defining characteristics, especially in view of potential applications. Therefore it is of both practical and fundamental importance to understand the mechanisms responsible for li miting the values of mobility. The aim of the paper is to study theoretically one such mechanism, i.e. scattering on ripples. The transport properties of rippled graphene are studied using using single-band tight-binding model. Both the bond-length variation, corresponding to the vector potential in the effective mass picture, and fluctuating scalar potential are included in the formalism. The samples are modeled as self-similar surfaces characterized by the roughness exponent with values ranging from typical for graphene on SiO$_{2}$ to seen in suspended samples. The range of calculated resistivities and mobilities overlaps with experiment. The results presented here support the notion of rippling as one of the factors limiting the mobility.
We present the results of the calculations of longitudinal and Hall conductivities of AB-stacked bilayer graphene as a function of frequency, finite chemical potential, temperature both with and without magnetic fields on a base of 2- and 4-band effe ctive models. The limited cases of the conductivities for direct current are derived. The relations being important for optoelectronic among Hall conductivities and Faraday, Kerr angles in the AB-bilayers samples in the electric and magnetic fields when the radiation passes across bilayer sheets on different kinds a substrate are obtained.

Landau level gaps are important parameters for understanding electronic interactions and symmetry-broken processes in bilayer graphene (BLG). Here we present transport spectroscopy measurements of LL gaps in double-gated suspended BLG with high mobil ities in the quantum Hall regime. By using bias as a spectroscopic tool, we measure the gap {Delta} for the quantum Hall (QH) state at filling factor { u}={pm}4 and -2. The single-particle gap for { u}=4 scales linearly with magnetic field B and is independent of the out-of-plane electric field E. For the symmetry-broken { u}=-2 state, the measured values of gap are 1.1 meV/T and 0.17 meV/T for singly-gated geometry and dual-gated geometry at E=0, respectively. The difference between the two values arises from the E-dependence of the gap, suggesting that the { u}=-2 state is layer polarized. Our studies provide the first measurements of the gaps of the broken symmetry QH states in BLG with well-controlled E, and establish a robust method that can be implemented for studying similar states in other layered materials.
We measure the conductance of carbon nanotube peapods from room temperature down to 250mK. Our devices show both metallic and semiconducting behavior at room temperature. At the lowest temperatures, we observe single electron effects. Our results sug gest that the encapsulated C$_{60}$ molecules do not introduce substantial backscattering for electrons near the Fermi level. This is remarkable given that previous tunneling spectroscopy measurements show that encapsulated C$_{60}$ strongly modifies the electronic structure of a nanotube away from the Fermi level.
