Room temperature nanostructured graphene transistors with high on-off ratio

Abstract

We report the batch fabrication of graphene field-effect-transistors (GFETs) with nanoperforated graphene as channel. The transistors were cut and encapsulated. The encapsulated GFETs display saturation regions that can be tuned by modifying the top gate voltage, and have on/off ratios of up to 10^8 at room temperature. In addition, the nanoperforated GFETs display orders of magnitude higher photoresponses than any room-temperature graphene detector configurations that do not involve heterostructures with bandgap materials.
