▎ 摘  要

Resonant graphene dopants, such as hydrogen adatoms, experience long-range effective interaction mediated by conduction electrons. As a result of this interaction, when several adatoms are present in the sample, hopping of adatoms between sites belonging to different sublattices involves significant energy changes. Different inelastic mechanisms facilitating such hopping, coupling to phonons and conduction electrons, are considered. It is estimated that the diffusion of hydrogen adatoms is rather slow, amounting to roughly one hop to a nearest neighbor per millisecond.
