The temperature ($it T$) dependence of electrical resistivity in graphene has been experimentally investigated between 10 and 400 K for samples prepared on various substrates; HfO$_2$, SiO$_2$ and h-BN. The resistivity of graphene shows a linear $it T$-dependence at low $it T$ and becomes superlinear above a substrate-dependent transition temperature. The results are explained by remote interfacial phonon scattering by surface optical phonons at the substrates. The use of an appropriate substrate can lead to a significant improvement in the charge transport of graphene.

Twisted double bilayer graphene (TDBG) is an electric-field-tunable moire system, exhibiting electron correlated states and related temperature linear (T-linear) resistivity. The displacement field provides a new knob to in-situ tune the relative str ength of electron interactions in TDBG, yielding not only a rich phase diagram but also the ability to investigate each phase individually. Here, we report a study of carrier density (n), displacement field (D) and twist angle dependence of T-linear resistivity in TDBG. For a large twist angle 1.5 degree where correlated insulating states are absent, we observe a T-linear resistivity (order of 10 Ohm per K) over a wide range of carrier density and its slope decreases with increasing of n before reaching the van Hove singularity, in agreement with acoustic phonon scattering model. The slope of T-linear resistivity is non-monotonically dependent on displacement field, with a single peak structure closely connected to single-particle van Hove Singularity (vHS) in TDBG. For an optimal twist angle of ~1.23 degree in the presence of correlated states, the slope of T-linear resistivity is found maximum at the boundary of the correlated halo regime (order of 100 Ohm per K), resulting a M shape displacement field dependence. The observation is beyond the phonon scattering model from single particle picture, and instead it suggests a strange metal behavior. We interpret the observation as a result of symmetry-breaking instability developed at quantum critical points where electron degeneracy changes. Our results demonstrate that TDBG is an ideal system to study the interplay between phonon and quantum criticality, and might help to map out the evolution of the order parameters for the ground states.
Recent theory has predicted large temperature differences between the in-plane (LA and TA) and out-of-plane (ZA) acoustic phonon baths in locally-heated suspended graphene. To verify these predictions, and their implications for understanding the non equilibrium thermodynamics of 2D materials, experimental techniques are needed. Here, we present a method to determine the acoustic phonon bath temperatures from the frequency-dependent mechanical response of suspended graphene to a power modulated laser. The mechanical motion reveals two counteracting contributions to the thermal expansion force, that are attributed to fast positive thermal expansion by the in-plane phonons and slower negative thermal expansion by the out-of-plane phonons. The magnitude of the two forces reveals that the in-plane and flexural acoustic phonons are at very different temperatures in the steady-state, with typically observed values of the ratio $Delta T_{mathrm{LA+TA}}/Delta T_{mathrm{ZA}}$ between 0.2 and 3.7. These deviations from the generally used local thermal equilibrium assumption ($Delta T_{mathrm{LA+TA}}=Delta T_{mathrm{ZA}}$) can affect the experimental analysis of thermal properties of 2D materials.

By means of first-principles calculations and modeling analysis, we have predicted that the traditional 2D-graphene hosts the topological phononic Weyl-like points (PWs) and phononic nodal line (PNL) in its phonon spectrum. The phonon dispersion of g raphene hosts three type-I PWs (both PW1 and PW2 at the BZ corners emph{K} and emph{K}, and PW3 locating along the $Gamma$-emph{K} line), one type-II PW4 locating along the $Gamma$-emph{M} line, and one PNL surrounding the centered $Gamma$ point in the $q_{x,y}$ plane. The calculations further reveal that Berry curvatures are vanishingly zero throughout the whole BZ, except for the positions of these four pairs of Weyl-like phonons, at which the non-zero singular Berry curvatures appear with the Berry phase of $pi$ or -$pi$, confirming its topological non-trivial nature. The topologically protected non-trivial phononic edge states have been also evidenced along both the zigzag-edged and armchair-edged boundaries. These results would pave the ways for further studies of topological phononic properties of graphene, such as phononic destructive interference with a suppression of backscattering and intrinsic phononic quantum Hall-like effects.
We discuss the difficulties to discover Kondo effect in the resistivity of graphene. Similarly to the Kondo effect, electron-electron interaction effects and weak localization appear as logarithmic corrections to the resistance. In order to disentang le these contributions, a refined analysis of the magnetoconductance and the magnetoresistance is introduced. We present numerical simulations which display the discrimination of both effects. Further, we present experimental data of magnetotransport. When magnetic molecules are added to graphene, a logarithmic correction to the conductance occurs, which apparently suggests Kondo physics. Our thorough evaluation scheme, however, reveals that this interpretation is not conclusive: the data can equally be explained by electron-electron interaction corrections in an inhomogeneous sample. Our evaluation scheme paves the way for a more refined search for the Kondo effect in graphene.
When Fe, which is a typical ferromagnet using d- or f-orbital states, is combined with 2D materials such as graphene, it offers many opportunities for spintronics. The origin of 2D magnetism is from magnetic insulating behaviors, which could result i n magnetic excitations and also proximity effects. However, the phenomena were only observed at extremely low temperatures. Fe and graphene interfaces could control spin structures in which they show a unique atomic spin modulation and magnetic coupling through the interface. Another reason for covering graphene on Fe is to prevent oxidation under ambient conditions. We investigated the engineering of spin configurations by growing monolayer graphene on an Fe(111) single crystal surface and observed the presence of sharply branched, 3D tree-like domain structures. Magnetization by a sweeping magnetic field (m-H) revealed that the interface showed canted magnetization in the in-plane (IP) orientation. Moreover, graphene could completely prevent the oxidation of the Fe surface. The results indicate possible control of the spin structures at the atomic scale and the interface phenomena in the 2D structure. The study introduces a new approach for room temperature 2D magnetism.
