arXiv:2011.03739 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.103.245414
Abstract
We analyze the statistical characteristics of the quasi-nonequilibrium two-dimensional electron-hole plasma in graphene layers (GLs) and graphene bilayers (GBLs) and evaluate their heat capacity.The GL heat capacity of the weakly pumped intrinsic or weakly doped GLs normalized by the Boltzmann constant is equal to . With varying carrier temperature the intrinsic GBL carrier heat capacity changes from at ~K to at elevated temperatures. These values are markedly differentfrom the heat capacity of classical two-dimensional carriers with . The obtained results can be useful for the optimization of different GL- and GBL-based high-speed devices.
