Carrier mobility in solids is generally limited by electron-impurity or electron-phonon scattering depending on the most frequently occurring event. Three body collisions between carriers and both phonons and impurities are rare; they are denoted supercollisions (SCs). Elusive in electronic transport they should emerge in relaxation processes as they allow for large energy transfers. As pointed out in Ref. onlinecite{Song2012PRL}, this is the case in undoped graphene where the small Fermi surface drastically restricts the allowed phonon energy in ordinary collisions. Using electrical heating and sensitive noise thermometry we report on SC-cooling in diffusive monolayer graphene. At low carrier density and high phonon temperature the Joule power $P$ obeys a $Ppropto T_e^3$ law as a function of electronic temperature $T_e$. It overrules the linear law expected for ordinary collisions which has recently been observed in resistivity measurements. The cubic law is characteristic of SCs and departs from the $T_e^4$ dependence recently reported for metallic graphene below the Bloch-Gr{u}neisen temperature. These supercollisions are important for applications of graphene in bolometry and photo-detection.

Controlling energy flows in solids through switchable electron-lattice cooling can grant access to a range of interesting and potentially useful energy transport phenomena. Here we discuss a unique switchable electron-lattice cooling mechanism arisin
g in graphene due to phonon emission mediated by resonant scattering on defects in crystal lattice, which displays interesting analogy to the Purcell effect in optics. This mechanism strongly enhances the electron-phonon cooling rate, since non-equilibrium carriers in the presence of momentum recoil due to disorder can access a larger phonon phase space and emit phonons more effciently. Resonant energy dependence of phonon emission translates into gate-tunable cooling rates, exhibiting giant enhancement of cooling occurring when the carrier energy is aligned with the electron resonance of the defect.
We have investigated the energy loss of hot electrons in metallic graphene by means of GHz noise thermometry at liquid helium temperature. We observe the electronic temperature T / V at low bias in agreement with the heat diffusion to the leads descr
ibed by the Wiedemann-Franz law. We report on $Tproptosqrt{V}$ behavior at high bias, which corresponds to a T4 dependence of the cooling power. This is the signature of a 2D acoustic phonon cooling mechanism. From a heat equation analysis of the two regimes we extract accurate values of the electron-acoustic phonon coupling constant $Sigma$ in monolayer graphene. Our measurements point to an important effect of lattice disorder in the reduction of $Sigma$, not yet considered by theory. Moreover, our study provides a strong and firm support to the rising field of graphene bolometric detectors.
We propose a mechanism for the quenching of the Shubnikov de Haas oscillations and the quantum Hall effect observed in epitaxial graphene. Experimental data show that the scattering time of the conduction electron is magnetic field dependent and of t
he order of the cyclotron orbit period, textit{i.e.} can be much smaller than the zero field scattering time. Our scenario involves the extraordinary graphene $n=0$ Landau level of the uncharged layers that produces a high density of states at the Fermi level. We find that the coupling between this $n=0$ Landau level and the conducting states of the doped plane leads to a scattering mechanism having the right magnitude to explain the experimental data.
In van der Waals bonded or rotationally disordered multilayer stacks of two-dimensional (2D) materials, the electronic states remain tightly confined within individual 2D layers. As a result, electron-phonon interactions occur primarily within layers
and interlayer electrical conductivities are low. In addition, strong covalent in-plane intralayer bonding combined with weak van der Waals interlayer bonding results in weak phonon-mediated thermal coupling between the layers. We demonstrate here, however, that Coulomb interactions between electrons in different layers of multilayer epitaxial graphene provide an important mechanism for interlayer thermal transport even though all electronic states are strongly confined within individual 2D layers. This effect is manifested in the relaxation dynamics of hot carriers in ultrafast time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy. We develop a theory of interlayer Coulomb coupling containing no free parameters that accounts for the experimentally observed trends in hot-carrier dynamics as temperature and the number of layers is varied.
Thermoelectric effects allow the generation of electrical power from waste heat and the electrical control of cooling and heating. Remarkably, these effects are also highly sensitive to the asymmetry in the density of states around the Fermi energy a
nd can therefore be exploited as probes of distortions in the electronic structure at the nanoscale. Here we consider two-dimensional graphene as an excellent nanoscale carbon material for exploring the interaction between electronic and thermal transport phenomena, by presenting a direct and quantitative measurement of the Peltier component to electronic cooling and heating in graphene. Thanks to an architecture including nanoscale thermometers, we detected Peltier component modulation of up to 15 mK for currents of 20 $mu$A at room temperature and observed a full reversal between Peltier cooling and heating for electron and hole regimes. This fundamental thermodynamic property is a complementary tool for the study of nanoscale thermoelectric transport in two-dimensional materials.
