  21. Adsorbate-limited conductivity of graphene
    J. P. Robinson, H. Schomerus, L. Oroszlany, and V. I. Fal'ko
    Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 196803 (2008), arXiv:0808.2511 [cond-mat.mes-hall].
    We present a theory of electronic transport in graphene in the presence of randomly placed adsorbates. Our analysis predicts a marked asymmetry of the conductivity about the Dirac point, as well as a negative weak-localization magnetoresistivity. In the region of strong scattering, quantum corrections drive the system further towards insulating behavior. These results explain key features of recent experiments, and are validated by numerical transport computations.
  22. Staggered repulsion of transmission eigenvalues in symmetric open mesoscopic systems
    M. Kopp, H. Schomerus, and S. Rotter
    Phys. Rev. B 78, 075312 (2008), arXiv:0708.0690 [cond-mat.mes-hall].
    Quantum systems with discrete symmetries can usually be desymmetrized, but this strategy fails when considering transport in open systems with a symmetry that maps different openings onto each other. We investigate the joint probability density of transmission eigenvalues for such systems in random-matrix theory. In the orthogonal symmetry class we show that the eigenvalue statistics manifests level repulsion only between every second transmission eigenvalue. This finds its natural statistical interpretation as a staggered superposition of two eigenvalue sequences. For a large number of channels, the statistics for a system with a lead-transposing symmetry approaches that of a superposition of two uncorrelated sets of eigenvalues as in systems with a lead-preserving symmetry (which can be desymmetrized). These predictions are confirmed by numerical computations of the transmission-eigenvalue spacing distribution for quantum billiards and for the open kicked rotator.
