Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of our study is to develop the synthesis process of the multilayer graphene nanoribbon (multi-GNR) which is expected as excellent channel materials in the field effect transistors (FETs). In order to achieve the purpose, chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is used for synthesis of the multi-GNRs on the double-layers GNR prepared by unzipping method as a template. Structural analysis for the same GNR before/after CVD growth using Raman spectroscopy reveals that the grown graphene layers have a turbostratic structure. We also observed that the ON current (~600 nA) evaluated from the FETs with the grown GNR channel is larger than that (~100 nA) valuated from the FETs with the pristine GNR channel. This indicates that the grown graphene layers contributes to an additional channel pass including the pristine GNR as a template, and is a significant result that the electrical transport properties of the multi-GNRs are experimentally observed for the first time.
