Charge transport across two-dimensional systems has been widely investigated during the last decade. Still, there are a lot of unexplored features in transport across multilayer disordered systems. Motivated by recent experiments [1], we simulate transport across multilayer strucrtures. We observe that conductance decreases when we deposit additional layers over a clean graphene monolayer. However, in defective graphene oxide the trend is opposite. Moreover, dependece on the number of layers is an unanswered question. Starting with Landauer-Büttiker and Kubo-Greenwood methodologies, we are able to shed light to the experimental results. Using localization theory and Thouless relation, we derive a scaling relation for dependence on the number of layers and obtain a good aggreement with experiment.
