摘要
We propose and demonstrate gold nanoparticle decorated graphene as an ideal system for studying carrier inhomogeneity induced magnetoresistance. Large linear magnetoresistance has been realized in the system and the magnitude can be tuned by a gate. By detailed study, we provide an empirical expression, which reveals the dependence of the magnetoresistance on density fluctuations and mobility. The induced magnetoresistance is temperature independent and can be strongly enhanced by the high mobility of graphene, hence offers potential for magnetic sensor applications.
