We describe a technique for fabricating one-dimensional Ohmic contacts to individual graphene layers encapsulated in hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) using CF4 and O-2 plasmas. The high etch selectivity of h-BN against graphene (>1000) is achieved by increasing the plasma pressure, which enables etching of h-BN, while graphene acts as an etch stop to protect underlying h-BN. A low-pressure O-2 plasma anisotropically etches graphene in the vertical direction, which exposes graphene edges at h-BN sidewalls. Despite the O-2 plasma bombardment, the lower h-BN layer functions as an insulating layer. Thus, this method allows us to pattern metal electrodes on h-BN over a second graphene layer. Subsequent electron-beam lithography and evaporation fabricate metal contacts at the graphene edges that are active down to cryogenic temperatures. This fabrication method is demonstrated by the preparation of a graphene Hall bar with a graphite backgate and double bilayer-graphene Hall bar devices. The high flexibility of the device geometries enabled by this method creates access to a variety of experiments on electrostatically coupled graphene layers. Published under license by AIP Publishing.
