Magneto-transport studies of hydrogenated graphene

ORAL

Abstract

We study the magnetoresistance of hydrogenated graphene devices on a SiO$_{2}$ substrate. A large negative magnetoresistance of up to 30{\%} in a field of 2.5T is observed at low temperatures and at the film's charge neutrality point without any sign of saturation. A detailed analysis of the gate voltage dependence demonstrates a suppression of the large, negative magnetoresistance, which appears to be driven by a crossover from strong localization at low carrier concentrations to weak localization at higher carrier concentrations. Evidence of electron-hole symmetry breaking is found in the magnetic field traces at low temperature.
