15. In the whole paper, we take the formal limit W/L→ and express the results in terms of conductance per channel, with W and L being, respectively, as the width (along y) and the length (along x) of the graphene strip. In practice, this corresponds to samples with aspect ratio W/L 4 according to Ref..
