Investigation of a DNA Nucleobase as a Gate Dielectric for Potential Application in a Graphene-based Field Effect Transistor

摘要

In this study, we investigated the effect of substrates on the electrical properties of transferred graphene. A wide range of substrates such as silicon carbide (SiC), glass, kapton, photo-print paper, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and Willow glass were selected based on their surface properties, flexibility and lattice match. Four monolayers of graphene were transferred onto each of these substrates. A comparative study of the electrical characteristics of the transferred graphene film only and graphene/guanine film on the different substrates was undertaken.
