Chen et al.1 recently presented data of a logarithmic low-temperature anomaly in the resistance of graphene flakes and attributed this to Kondo physics. The samples were irradiated beforehand with ions, and the appearance of a logarithmic anomaly was linked to the presence of induced defect states with unpaired electrons. Here, we present evidence that this assignment to Kondo physics is wrong. The observed effect is due to electron--electron interaction (EEI)2, which in the diffusive regime also gives a logarithmic correction to the resistance (in two dimensions). It is an effect that is based on very general assumptions, and that has been observed in many two-dimensional materials in excellent agreement with theory. It has been pinpointed in graphene recently3.
