Abstract

The effect of a magnetic field on the conductivity of band-gap graphene has been investigated. In the case of a non-quantizing field, the magnetic-field dependences of the conductivity and Hall conductivity have been found on the basis of the Boltzmann equation. The formula for the conductivity of graphene in a quantizing magnetic field at low temperatures has been derived within the Born approximation in the scattering potential. It has been shown that the magnetic-field dependence of the conductivity is oscillatory in this case.
