Adjustable Electrically Biased Suspended Graphene Field Effect Transistor
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of information and communication technologies, and in particular, to a graphene field effect transistor.
[0002] Terahertz (THz) waves refer to electromagnetic waves with frequencies in a range of 0.1 THz to 10 THz, and have shown broad application prospects in fields such as terahertz imaging, terahertz radar, medical diagnosis, substance detection, and 6G wireless communication. In development of terahertz technology, lack of related functional devices applied in terahertz bands is one of main factors restricting further development of terahertz technology. Therefore, finding and developing high-performance materials and related devices working in terahertz bands is a problem that researchers in the field of terahertz technology are pursuing and urgently need to solve at present.
[0003] A graphene material is a new material that tightly stacks carbon atoms into a single- layer two-dimensional honeycomb lattice structure. Since the graphene material was first mechanically peeled off in 2004, the graphene material has been widely used due to its unique physical properties such as special energy band structure, wide spectral response range, extremely high carrier mobility, and adjustable Fermi energy levels. Due to special properties of high mobility and high thermal conductivity, graphene is extremely prone to generate hot electrons even under the action of a tiny bias electric field. Under the action of a direct-current bias electric field, graphene exhibits a thermal radiation form like blackbody radiation, and radiates energy to the outside. Currently, graphene and its devices have abundant research reports and broad application prospects in far-infrared, near-infrared, and visible light bands, but radiation phenomena of electrically biased graphene in terahertz bands with lower frequencies are rarely reported. The frequency and efficiency of radiation from the electrically biased graphene are affected by parameters such as spatial distribution, temperature, and concentration of hot electrons in graphene, and an electrical transport mechanism (scattering
2 602141P-NL mechanism) of carriers in the graphene and a coupling effect between electrons and optical phonons also affect a radiation mechanism. These complex factors lead to relatively low radiation efficiency of the graphene in terahertz bands, particularly in low-frequency terahertz bands.
[0004] Aiming at the shortcomings in the prior art, the present invention provides an adjustable electrically biased suspended graphene field effect transistor, which solves problems of spatial distribution, uneven temperature and uneven concentration of hot electrons in graphene, and improves radiation efficiency, so that the field effect transistor may generate terahertz radiation signals under the action of a direct-current bias electric field, and radiation frequencies of the signals may be adjusted by adjusting channel widths.
[0005] The objective of the present invention is achieved as follows: An adjustable electrically biased suspended graphene field effect transistor includes gate electrodes, a SiO» substrate, single layers of graphene, source electrodes, and drain electrodes.
[0006] Four gold electrodes are provided on a surface of the SiO substrate in four angular directions, the four gold electrodes are used as source electrodes and drain electrodes of a pair of devices respectively, a pair of gate electrodes is also provided under the SiO: substrate, a plurality of trapezoidal channels are formed at a middle part of the surface of the S10» substrate, two single layers of graphene are provided, and one of the single layers of graphene is arranged on the surface of the SiO: substrate, forms suspended arc surface structures at wide channels, and is in ohmic connection with the gold electrodes on two sides; and the other single layer of graphene is arranged on the surface of the SiO: substrate, forms suspended arc surface structures at narrow channels, and is in ohmic connection with the gold electrodes on two sides.
[0007] As a further definition of the present invention, a single layer of graphene is further provided at a middle part of the trapezoidal channels, and a gate electrode, a source electrode, and a gate electrode are provided at corresponding positions.
[0008] As a further definition of the present invention, the channels formed below the single layer of graphene have a width of 100 + 5 nm and a depth of 200 nm.
3 602141P-NL
[0009] As a further definition of the present invention, the wide channels have a width of 150+ 5 nm and a depth of 200 nm.
[0010] As a further definition of the present invention, the narrow channels have a width of 50 + 5 nm and a depth of 200 nm.
[0011] As a further definition of the present invention, the gold electrodes are grown on a front side of the S10; substrate through a magnetron sputtering method, with a thickness of 100 + 10 nm.
[0012] As a further definition of the present invention, the single layer of graphene has a thickness of 5 + 1 nm.
[0013] In the present invention, the graphene is "suspended" on the substrate by etching the channels on the substrate, so that the graphene above the channels is in a suspended arc status;
[0014] First, the graphene is not in contact with the substrate, which may avoid transfer of energy radiated by the graphene to the substrate, thereby effectively improving the temperature of hot electrons in the graphene, solving an existing problem of uneven temperature distribution of hot electrons, improving radiation efficiency, and providing an efficiency foundation for radiating terahertz waves;
[0015] Second, because the plane of the graphene layer 1s in a suspended arc status, the surface of the graphene layer has different curvatures everywhere, which is conducive to localized distribution of hot electrons under the action of electrical bias, so as to form corresponding hot spots, solve an existing problem of uneven concentration distribution of hot electrons, further improve radiation efficiency, and further strengthen the efficiency foundation;
[0016] Third, due to the designed channel structure, the graphene layer may form an interference effect by using light radiated by the graphene and reflected light from the channels, thereby improving radiation efficiency; and
[0017] Fourth, due to the designed trapezoidal channel structure, the frequency of terahertz radiation from the graphene is controlled by adjusting different channel widths, and a suspended graphene prototype device with radiation in a range of 340 GHz to 1 THz is ultimately obtained.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] The present invention provides a practical basis for electrically biased graphene
4 602141P-NL terahertz commercial devices by designing trapezoidal channels and directly detecting radiation of generated terahertz waves on graphene under the action of voltage bias; and the frequency is adjusted through the gradual change of the width of the trapezoidal structure, which provides a foundation for later application.

[0034] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are described clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Apparently, the described embodiments are only some 5 rather than all of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without any creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0035] An adjustable electrically biased suspended graphene field effect transistor as shown in FIG. 1 includes gate electrodes, a SiO; substrate, single layers of graphene, source electrodes, and drain electrodes.
[0036] Six gold electrodes are provided on a surface of the S10, substrate in four angular directions, the gold electrodes are grown on a front side of the SiO; substrate through a magnetron sputtering method with a thickness of 100 + 10 nm, the six gold electrodes are used as source electrodes and drain electrodes of three devices respectively, three gate electrodes are also provided under the SiO: substrate at positions corresponding to the source electrodes and the drain electrodes, a plurality of trapezoidal channels are formed at a middle part of the surface of the S10; substrate, and three single layers of graphene are provided with a thickness of 5+ 1 nm.
[0037] As shown in FIG. 2, one of the single layers of graphene is arranged on the surface of the SiO: substrate, forms suspended arc surface structures at wide channels, and is in ohmic connection with the gold electrodes on two sides, and the wide channels have a width of 150 + 5 nm and a depth of 200 nm.
[0038] As shown in FIG. 3, another single layer of graphene is arranged on the surface of the
SiO: substrate, forms suspended arc surface structures at medium channels, and is in ohmic connection with the gold electrodes on two sides, and the medium channels have a width of 100 + 5 nm and a depth of 200 nm.
[0039] As shown in FIG. 4, the last single layer of graphene is arranged on the surface of the
S102 substrate, forms suspended arc surface structures at narrow channels, and is in ohmic connection with the gold electrodes on two sides, and the narrow channels have a width of 50
6 602141P-NL + 5 nm and a depth of 200 nm.
[0040] The foregoing field effect transistor is tested below. Three types of antenna coupled gallium nitride/aluminum gallium nitride (GaN/AlGaN) high-electron-mobility transistor chips are selected as detectors, corresponding to 340 GHz, 600 GHz, and 900 GHz, respectively.
Turn-on voltages (VT) of the chips at a low temperature of 4K are -3.48V, -3.18V, and -3.08V, respectively, and noise equivalent power is 3 pW/VHz at room temperature and decreases to below 1pW/VHz at 77K. Combined with a Fourier transform spectrometer, an effective detection range of terahertz bands by the chips may be extended to 0.1 THz-2 THz.
[0041] A test platform shown in FIG. 5 1s used. A field effect transistor sample and a terahertz detector are placed face to face on a test support, and may be mechanically adjusted at a distance between 0.5 cm and 3 cm. The test support is electrically connected to a relevant test device through a low-temperature tube and placed in an Oxford low-temperature test system for variable temperature testing, and may be adjusted at a temperature range of 300 K to 10 K.
[0042] A test circuit shown in FIG. 6 is used. When a terahertz detector is given with a working voltage (gate electrode voltage), if terahertz radiation at a corresponding frequency is generated from graphene and gathered at the terahertz detector through a silicon lens, additional light induced current is formed between the source electrode and drain electrode of the terahertz detector, and the frequency and intensity of the terahertz radiation may be obtained through the relationship between the magnitude of the light induced current and the gate electrode voltage.
A source meter device of the external test platform includes a yokogawa voltage source meter for applying and scanning the gate electrode voltage of the terahertz detector, a current voltage conversion amplifier for outputting current signals, a keysight voltmeter for testing voltage signals, and a lock-in amplifier for alternating current signal testing. Alternating current output of the lock-in amplifier acts on the gate electrode of the terahertz device through a direct current-alternating current adder, to detect a first derivative of output signals, so as to improve accuracy of the signals. In addition, the lock-in amplifier used in the test platform is by far the best device with a signal extraction ability, a dynamic reserve up to 100 dB, and abilities of multi-channel signal collection and multi-step signal processing.
[0043] FIG. 7 shows a working characteristic curve of a 340 GHz terahertz detector, and FIG. 8 shows signal current in the detector partially affected by different bias current for a field
7 002141P-NL effect transistor with a channel width of 50 nm and a channel depth of 200 nm, indicating that terahertz signals radiated near 340 GHz are stronger as the bias current in graphene is stronger.
[0044] FIG. 9 shows a working characteristic curve of a 600 GHz terahertz detector, and FIG. 10 shows signal current in the detector partially affected by different bias current for a field effect transistor with a channel width of 100 nm and a channel depth of 200 nm, indicating that terahertz signals radiated near 600 GHz are stronger as the bias current in graphene is stronger, the frequency of terahertz radiation from the graphene may be effectively adjusted with the change of the graphene channel width, and the frequency of terahertz radiation shifts to high frequency bands as the channels widen.
[0045] FIG. 11 shows a working characteristic curve of a 900 GHz terahertz detector, and
FIG. 12 shows signal current in the detector partially affected by different bias current for a field effect transistor with a channel width of 150 nm and a channel depth of 200 nm, indicating that terahertz signals radiated near 900 GHz are stronger as the bias current in graphene is stronger, the frequency of terahertz radiation from the graphene may be effectively adjusted with the change of the graphene channel width, and the frequency of terahertz radiation shifts to high frequency bands as the channels widen.
