Abstract

The electronic thermal conductivity of graphene and two-dimensional Dirac materials is of fundamental interest and can play an important role in the performance of nanoscale devices.We report the electronic thermal conductivity Ke in suspended graphene in the nearly intrinsic regime over a temperature range of 20–300 K. We present a method to extract Ke using two-point dc electron transport at low bias voltages, where the electron and lattice temperatures are decoupled. We find Ke ranging from 0.5 to 11 W/m K over the studied temperature range. The data are consistent with a model in which heat is carried by quasiparticles with the same mean free path and velocity as graphene’s charge carriers.
