Excess resistivity in graphene superlattices caused by umklapp electron-electron scattering

J. R. Wallbank, R. Krishna Kumar, M. Holwill +11

Umklapp processes play a fundamental role as the only intrinsic mechanism that allows electrons to transfer momentum to the crystal lattice and, therefore, provide a finite electri…
