Quantum capacitance graphene varactors and fabrication methods

摘要

A plate varactor includes a dielectric substrate and a first electrode embedded in a surface of the substrate. A capacitor dielectric layer is disposed over the first electrode, and a layer of graphene is formed over the dielectric layer to contribute a quantum capacitance component to the dielectric layer. An upper electrode is formed on the layer of graphene. Other embodiments and methods for fabrication are also included.
