We show that the temperature dependence of graphene conductivity around the charge neutrality point provides information about how close the system can approach the Dirac point although competition between long-range and short-range disorder as well as between diffusive and ballistic transport may considerably complicate the picture. We also find that acoustic phonon scattering contribution to the graphene resistivity is always relevant at the Dirac point in contrast to higher density situations where the acoustic phonon contribution to the resistivity is strongly suppressed at the low temperature Bloch-Gr\\\"{u}neisen regime. We provide detailed numerical results for temperature and density dependent conductivity for suspended graphene.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-01-25T16:58:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "72.80.Vp", "72.10.-d", "73.23.Ad" ], "keywords": [ "density dependent electrical conductivity", "dirac point", "suspended graphene", "temperature", "higher density situations" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2013, "month": "Jan", "volume": 87, "number": 3, "pages": "035415" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013PhRvB..87c5415D" } } }
