Here we show, with simultaneous transport and photoemission measurements, that the graphene terminated SiC(0001) surface undergoes a metal-insulator transition (MIT) upon dosingwith small amounts of atomic hydrogen. We find the room temperature resistance increases by about 4 orders of magnitude, a transition accompanied by anomalies in the momentum-resolved spectral function including a non-Fermi Liquid behaviour and a breakdown of the quasiparticle picture. These effects are discussed in terms of a possible transition to a strongly (Anderson) localized ground state.

The quantum Hall effect in a single-layer graphene sample is studied in strong magnetic fields up to 28 T. Our measurements reveal the existence of a metal- insulator transition from filling factor $ u=-2$ to $ u=0$. The value of the universal scalin g exponent is found to be $kappa=0.57 $ in graphene and therefore in a truly two-dimensional system. This value of $kappa$ is in agreement with the accepted universal value for the plateau-insulator transitions in standard quasi two-dimensional electron and hole gases.
A method for the study of the electronic transport in strongly coupled electron-phonon systems is formalized and applied to a model of polyyne chains biased through metallic Au leads. We derive a stationary non equilibrium polaronic theory in the gen eral framework of a variational formulation. The numerical procedure we propose can be readily applied if the electron-phonon interaction in the device hamiltonian can be approximated as an effective single particle electron hamiltonian. Using this approach, we predict that finite polyyne chains should manifest an insulator-metal transition driven by the non-equilibrium charging which inhibits the Peierls instability characterizing the equilibrium state.

We investigated metal-insulator transitions for double layer two-dimensional electron hole systems in transition metal dicalcogenides (TMDC) stacked on opposite sides of thin layers of boron nitride (BN). The interparticle interaction is calculated b y including the screening due to the polarization charges at different interfaces, including that at the encapsultion and the substrate of experimental structures. We compute and compare the energies of the metallic electron-hole plasma and the newly proposed insulating exciton solid with fixed-node diffusion Monte Carlo simulation including the high valley degeneracy of the electron bands. We found that for some examples of current experimental structures, the transition electron/hole density is in an accessible range of g x 10^12 /cm*2 with g between 4.1 and 14.5 for spacer thicknesses between 2.5 and 7.5 nm. Our result raise the possibility of exploiting this effect for logic device applications.

A brief review of experiments directed to study a gradual localization of charge carriers and metal-insulator transition in samples of disordered monolayer graphene is presented. Disorder was induced by irradiation with different doses of heavy and l ight ions. Degree of disorder was controlled by measurements of the Raman scattering spectra. The temperature dependences of conductivity and magnetoresistance (MR) showed that at low disorder, conductivity is governed by the weak localization and antilocalization regime. Further increase of disorder leads to strong localization of charge carriers, when the conductivity is described by the variable-range-hopping (VRH) mechanism. It was observed that MR in the VRH regime is negative in perpendicular fields and is positive in parallel magnetic fields which allowed to reveal different mechanisms of hopping MR. Theoretical analysis is in a good agreement with experimental data.
In this paper we present a comprehensive model for the tunneling current of the metal-insulator-graphene heterostructure, based on the Bardeen Transfer Hamiltonian method, of the metal-insulator-graphene heterostructure. As a particular case we have studied the metal-graphene junction, unveiling the role played by different electrical and physical parameters in determining the differential contact resistance.
