Abstract

We apply the semiclassical Boltzmann formalism for the computation of transport properties to multilayer graphene. We compute the electrical conductivity as well as the thermal conductivity and thermopower for Bernal-stacked multilayers with an even number of layers. We show that the window for hydrodynamic transport in multilayer graphene is similar to the case of bilayer graphene. We introduce a simple hydrodynamic model which we dub the multifluid model and which can be used to reproduce the results for the electrical conductivity and thermopower from the semiclassical Boltzmann equation.
