▎ 摘 要
Transistors are constructed using chemical-vapor-deposited graphene on mechanically flexible polyimide and incorporate a low-temperature atomic-layer-deposited gate dielectric. Three-micrometer gate length transistors with V(ds) = 2.0 V have a drive current of > 0.3 A/mm with a transconductance of > 3 mS/mm. The peak hole and electron mobilities are 295 and 106 cm(2)/V . s, respectively. Subsequent to repeated flexing, the ambipolar characteristics and extremely low gate leakage remain intact with < 15% reduction in the peak carrier mobility. Good agreement is obtained between the measured mobility and a physically based empirical model and is consistent with the mobility limited by impurity levels and surface roughness. Using graphene-on-polyimide transistors, radio-frequency functionalities, including signal amplification and phase shifting, are demonstrated, and routes for performance improvement are discussed. The results are important for the development of graphene-based electronics on mechanically flexible substrates.
