▎ 摘  要

Considering electron-impurity, electron-acoustic-phonon and electron-optical-phonon scatterings, the nonlinear steady-state transport properties of graphene are studied theoretically by means of the balance equation approach. We find that the conductivity as a function of electric field strength, E, exhibits strongly nonlinear behavior for E larger than a critical value, E-c approximate to 0.1 kV cm(-1). With the increase of E from zero, the conductivity first decreases slowly and then it falls rapidly when E > E-c. The dependence of electron temperature on E is also demonstrated.
