Abstract

Study about doping-induced superconductivity in carbon allotropes has long history. Graphene, which is an rapidly growing subject in condensed matter research in this decade, is not the exception. Even though the as-grown graphene is far from superconductivity due to its semimetallic nature, A few groups have succeed to synthesize metal-doped graphene which show sign of superconductivity. Since their research totally differs in not only synthesis but detection method, however, it is still controversial issue to determine the driving force and establishment of superconductivity. In this chapter, the first demonstration of electrical transport measurements on metal-intercalated bilayer graphene is presented, where Ca-intercalated bilayer graphene exhibits superconducting transition at 2 K while Li-intercalated one do not. This result supports the interlayer-band origin of superconductivity, which has been conventionally suggested in graphite intercalation compounds.
