Abstract

We study localization properties of the Dirac-like electronic states in monolayers of graphite. In the framework of a general disorder model, we discuss the conditions under which such standard localization effects as the logarithmic temperature-dependent conductivity correction appear to be strongly suppressed, as compared to the case of a two-dimensional electron gas with parabolic dispersion, in agreement with recent experimental observations.
