Abstract

We calculate the zero-temperature conductivity of bilayer graphene (BLG) impacted by Coulomb impurity scattering using four different screening models: unscreened, Thomas–Fermi (TF), overscreened and random phase approximation (RPA). We also calculate the conductivity and thermal conductance of BLG using TF, zero- and finite-temperature RPA screening functions. We find large differences between the results of the models and show that TF and finite-temperature RPA give similar results for diffusion thermopower S[Formula: see text]. Using the finite-temperature RPA, we calculate temperature and density dependence of S[Formula: see text] in BLG on SiO2, HfO2 substrates and suspended BLG for different values of interlayer distance c and distance between the first layer and the substrate d.
