Abstract
Methods of fabricating patterned substrates, including patterned graphene substrates, using etch masks formed from self-assembled block copolymer films are provided. Some embodiments of the methods are based on block copolymer (BCP) lithography in combination with graphoepitaxy. Some embodiments of the methods are based on BCP lithography techniques that utilize hybrid organic/inorganic etch masks derived from BCP templates. Also provided are field effect transistors incorporating graphene nanoribbon arrays as the conducting channel and methods for fabricating such transistors.
