Abstract

The orbital magnetism is studied in graphene monolayer within the effective-mass approximation. In models of short-range and long-range disorders, the magnetization is calculated with self-consistent Born approximation. In the zero-field limit, the susceptibility becomes highly diamagnetic around zero energy, while it has a long tail proportional to the inverse of the Fermi energy. We demonstrated how the magnetic oscillation vanishes and converges to the susceptibility, in going from a strong-field regime to a weak-field regime. The behavior at zero energy is shown to be highly singular.
