Boundary Conditions for Electron Flow in Graphene in the Hydrodynamic Regime

Graphene has generated a lot of research interest due to its special properties, which include a hydrodynamic regime. It is not yet clear however which boundary condition such a hydrodynamic current flow satisfies. The aim of this paper is to investigate the effect of different boundary conditions on the potential in an infinite strip of graphene, in which the electrons can be treated hydrodynamically. The boundary conditions on the current range continuously from no-slip to a free boundary. We analyse the situation for two different orientations of the source and sink, inspired by recent papers. We discuss which geometry is better suited for identifying the hydrodynamic regime and experimentally determining the boundary conditions.
