A self-consistent field equation in the real space domain is obtained by using a suitable Thomas-Fermi procedure. Exact and approximated (for qualitative considerations) solutions are presented. In the case of a charged sheet, the screened potential presents a tail dependent on the free carrier density whose importance is connected with the local features of the impurity system. Early conclusions about Thomas-Fermi screening in graphene are revised.Other Condensed Mattertext
