Seminar
Anomalous Dissipation Mechanism and Hall Quantization Limit in Polycrystalline CVD Graphene
Wednesday, 16 July 2014, 13:30-15:00
Talk given by Dr. Rebeca Ribeiro
We report on the observation of strong backscattering of charge carriers
in the quantum Hall regime of polycrystalline graphene grown by chemical
vapor deposition, which alters the accuracy of the Hall resistance
quantization. The temperature and magnetic field dependence of the
longitudinal conductivity exhibits unexpectedly smooth power law
behaviors, which are incompatible with a description in terms of variable
range hopping or thermal activation, but rather suggest the existence of
extended or poorly localized states at energies between Landau levels.
Such states could be caused by the high density of line defects (grain
boundaries and wrinkles) that cross the Hall bars, as revealed by
structural characterizations. Numerical calculations confirm that quasi-1D
extended non-chiral states can form along such line defects and short-
circuit the Hall bar chiral edge states.
