Low-field magnetoresistance is ubiquitous in low-dimensional metallic systems with high resistivity and well understood as arising due to quantum interference on self-intersecting diffusive trajectories. We have found that in graphene this weak-localization magnetoresistance is strongly suppressed and, in some cases, completely absent. The unexpected observation is attributed to mesoscopic corrugations of graphene sheets which can cause a dephasing effect similar to that of a random magnetic field.
低场磁阻在具有高电阻率的低维金属系统中普遍存在,并且由于自相交扩散轨迹上的量子干涉而被很好地理解。我们发现,在石墨烯中,这种弱局域磁阻被强烈抑制,在某些情况下甚至完全不存在。这一意外观察结果归因于石墨烯片的介观波纹,其可导致类似于随机磁场的退相效应。
