Abstract

Charge transport in channel-shaped 2D Dirac systems is studied employing the Boltzmann equation. The dependence of the resistivity on temperature and chemical potential is investigated. An accurate understanding of the influence of electron-electron interaction and material disorder allows us to identify a parameter regime, where the system reveals hydrodynamic transport behavior. We point out the conditions for three Dirac fermion specific features: heat flow hydrodynamics, pseudo\-diffusive transport, and the electron-hole scattering dominated regime. It is demonstrated that for clean samples the relativistic Gurzhi effect, a definite indicator of hydrodynamic transport, can be observed.
