← ScienceWhich process limits current conduction when graphene sheet edges have nitrogen doping?
A)Anderson localization from edge scattering✓
B)Phonon scattering from increased thermal energy
C)Increased fermi velocity limits conductivity
D)Inter-layer resistivity through van der Waals
💡 Explanation
When graphene edges are nitrogen-doped, nitrogen atoms act as scattering centers, disrupting the electron wavefunction and causing Anderson localization because of increased scattering from the modified orbitals. Therefore, Anderson localization limits conduction, rather than phonon scattering, fermi velocity change or interlayer resistivity, which involve different dominant processes.
