Abstract

We investigate the effect of gold (Au) atoms in the form of both point-like charged impurities and clusters on the transport properties of graphene. Cryogenic deposition (18 K) of Au decreases the mobility and shifts the Dirac point in a manner that is consistent with scattering from point-like charged impurities. Increasing the temperature to room temperature promotes the formation of clusters, which is verified with atomic force microscopy. We find that for a fixed amount of Au impurities, the formation of clusters enhances the mobility and causes the Dirac point to shift back towards zero.
