Key Points

  • This research aims to develop a method for fabricating graphene transistors using transfer printing techniques.
  • Used pillars on a stamp to cut and exfoliate graphene islands
  • Employed transfer printing to place graphene into device active-areas on a substrate
  • Investigated effects of various transferring and fixing layers on graphene adhesion
  • Transistors exhibited hole mobility of 3735 cm²/V-s and electron mobility of 795 cm²/V-s
  • Achieved a maximum drive-current of 1.7 mA/μm at V DS = 1 V, among the highest for room temperature
  • Placement accuracy of the islands could reach potentially nanometers

Abstract

We demonstrate a method that uses the pillars on a stamp to cut and exfoliate graphene islands from a graphite and then uses transfer printing to place the islands from the stamp into the device active-areas on a substrate with a placement accuracy potentially in nanometers. The process can be repeated to cover all device active-areas over an entire wafer. We also report the transistors fabricated from the printed graphene. The transistors show a hole and electron mobility of 3735 and 795 cm 2 /V-s, respectively, and a maximum drive-current of 1.7 mA/μm (at V DS = 1 V), which are among the highest reported for room temperature. The effects of various transferring and fixing layers on sticking graphenes to a stamp and to a substrate, respectively, were also investigated.
