Abstract

The specifics of charge screening and electrostatic potential spatial distribution in multilayered graphene films placed in between charged substrates is theoretically analyzed. It is shown that by varying the areal charge densities on the substrates and/or the thickness of the graphene stack one may tune the doped carriers distribution over the system. When the charge densities on the substrates are weak, the carriers distribution and electrostatic potential profile agree with semimetallic properties of graphene. However, when the amount of the donated charge is sufficiently large the transition to a metallic-like behavior of the graphene layers occurs. The possibilities for experimental observation of the predicted transition are discussed.
