▎ 摘 要
We investigate electronic transport in the nitrogen-doped graphene containing different configurations of point defects: singly or doubly substituting N atoms and nitrogen-vacancy complexes. The results are numerically obtained using the quantum-mechanical Kubo-Greenwood formalism. Nitrogen substitutions in graphene lattice are modelled by the scattering potential adopted from the independent self-consistent ab initio calculations. Variety of quantitative and qualitative changes in the conductivity behaviour are revealed for both graphite- and pyridine-type N defects in graphene. For the most common graphite-like configurations in the N-doped graphene, we also consider cases of correlation and ordering of substitutional N atoms. The conductivity is found to be enhanced up to several times for correlated N dopants and tens times for ordered ones as compared to the cases of their random distributions. The presence of vacancies in the complex defects as well as ordering of N dopants suppresses the electron-hole asymmetry of the conductivity in graphene. (c) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
