    Abstract : This thesis presents a novel approach to integrate chemical vapor deposition (CVD) graphene into silicon micro- and nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS) to fabricate different graphene based MEMS/NEMS structures and explore mechanical properties of graphene as well as their applications such as acceleration sensing, humidity sensing and CO2 sensing. The thesis also presents a novel method of characterization of CVD graphene grain boundary based defects. READ MORE

  4. 2. Graphene Hot-electron Transistors

    Author : Sam Vaziri; Mikael Östling; Max Lemme; Suman Datta; KTH; []
    Keywords : Graphene; hot-electron transistors; graphene base transistors; GBT; cross-plane carrier transport; tunneling; ballistic transport; heterojunction transistors; graphene integration; graphene transfer; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : Graphene base transistors (GBTs) have been, recently, proposed to overcome the intrinsic limitations of the graphene field effect transistors (GFETs) and exploit the graphene unique properties in high frequency (HF) applications. These devices utilize single layer graphene as the base material in the vertical hot-electron transistors. READ MORE

  5. 3. Microwave characterisation of electrodes and field effect transistors based on graphene

    Author : MICHAEL ANDERSSON; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Graphene; graphene electrodes; microwave amplifiers; noise measurements; microwave FETs; CVD graphene; noise modelling; FBARs.; nanofabrication; subharmonic resistive mixers; small-signal FET modelling;

    Abstract : The isolation of the two-dimensional material graphene, a single hexagonal sheet of carbon atoms, is believed to trigger a revolution in electronics. Theory predicts unprecedented carrier velocities in ideal graphene, from which ultrahigh speed graphene field effect transistors (GFETs) are envisioned. READ MORE

  6. 4. Plasmons in Nanostructured Graphene

    Author : Tobias Wenger; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; linear response theory; surface plasmon-polaritons; Plasmons; surface electrodynamics; plasmonics; graphene; random phase approximation;

    Abstract : Plasmons, collective electron density oscillations, provide physicists with intriguing challenges and possibilities. The inherent many-body properties of the plasmons together with their ability to localize light into small volumes make the plasmons interesting from both a purely theoretical viewpoint and an applications point of view.
