Researchers from the University of Maryland and the CNST’s Shaffique Adam have published a comprehensive review of electronic transport properties in graphene, comparing it to other 2D materials like semiconductor heterostructures and quantum wells. The 64-page article, published in Reviews of Modern Physics, details how graphene’s unique transport properties, such as its robust metallic state and unusual quantum motion in short ballistic devices, differ from conventional materials while sharing some similarities when adjusted for its gapless, massless, chiral Dirac spectrum. The article has been well-received, with over 60 citations since its preprint was posted online in March 2010, making it one of the most cited graphene papers of the year.
