Abstract

Graphene FETs exhibit low power consumption and high switching rates taking advantage of the excellent mobility in graphene deposited on a rocksalt oxide (111) by chemical vapor deposition, plasma vapor deposition or molecular beam epitaxy. A source, drain and electrical contacts are formed on the graphene layer. These devices exhibit band gap phenomena on the order of greater than about 0.5 eV, easily high enough to serve as high speed low power logic devices. Integration of this construction technology, based on the successful deposition of few layer graphene on the rocksalt oxide (111) with SI CMOS is straightforward.
