Abstract
We have measured the quantum-Hall activation gaps in graphene at filling factors and for magnetic fields up to 32 T and temperatures from 4 to 300 K. The gap can be described by thermal excitation to broadened Landau levels with a width of 400 K. In contrast, the gap measured at is strongly temperature and field dependent and approaches the expected value for sharp Landau levels for fields and temperatures . We explain this surprising behavior by a narrowing of the lowest Landau level.
