Abstract
A transfer matrix approach is used to study the electronic transport in graphene superlattices with long-range correlated barrier spacements. By considering the low-energy electronic excitations as massless Dirac fermions, we compute by transmission spectra of graphene superlattices with potential barriers having spacements randomly distributed with long-range correlations governed by a power-law spectral density . We show that at large incidence angles, the correlations in the disorder distribution do not play a significant role in the electronic transmission. However, long-range correlations suppress the Anderson localization as normal incidence is approached and a band of transmitting modes sets up reminiscent of Klein tunneling.
