Within the framework of stochastic reactive molecular dynamics simulations a statistical method for generating fluorinated graphene structures with desirable fluorine distribution is developed. Electronic transport properties of fluorinated graphene in a wide range of functionalization degrees and system ordering are investigated. A strong correlation between irregularities in fluorine distribution and electronic properties is found. In particular, proposed consideration allows for the reproduction of both the experimentally observed electron-hole asymmetry in transport properties of fluorinated graphene and a recently revealed conductivity peak at 10% fluoride content.
