Electric-Field Induced Doping Polarity Conversion in Top-Gated Transistor Based on Chemical Vapor Deposition of Graphene
Abstract
The top-gated graphene field effect transistor (GFET) with electric-field induced doping polarity conversion has been demonstrated. The polarity of channel conductance in GFET can be transition from p-type to n-type through altering the gate electric field scanning range. Further analysis indicates that this complementary doping is attributed to the charge exchange between graphene and interface trap sites. The oxygen vacancies in Al2O3filmare are considered to be the origin of the trap sites. The trapping–detrapping process, which may be tuned by the electric field across the metal/oxide/graphene gate stack, could lead to the changing of the intrinsic electric property of graphene. This study promises to produce the complementary p- and n-type GFET for logic applications.
