▎ 摘  要

By using Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy with an additional applied electric field we investigate the local voltage drop in graphene on SiO2 under ambient conditions. We are able to quantify the variation of the local sheet resistance and to resolve localized voltage drops at line defects. Our data demonstrates that the resistance of line defects has been overestimated so far. Moreover, we show that wrinkles have the largest resistance, rho(Wrinkle) < 80 Omega mu m. Temperature-dependent measurements show that the local monolayer sheet resistance reflects the macroscopic increase in resistance with temperature while the defect resistance for folded wrinkles is best described by a temperature-independent model which we attribute to interlayer tunneling.
