摘要

An intuitive explanation of the increase in localization observed near the Dirac point in doped graphene is presented. To do this, we renormalize the tight binding Hamiltonians in such a way that the honeycomb lattice maps into a triangular one. Then, we investigate the frustration effects that emerge in this Hamiltonian. In this doped triangular lattice, the eigenstates have a bonding and antibonding contribution near the Dirac point, and thus there is a kind of Lifshitz tail. The increase in frustration is related to an increase in localization, since the number of frustrated bonds decreases with disorder, while the frustration contribution raises.
