▲ [7p-C13-4] Single-nanometer graphene patterning with helium ion beam for extreme sensing and phonon engineering applications
キーワード:ion beam, graphene, nanofabrication
We report on our recent attempt of single-nanometer-scale patterning of suspended graphene structures by using focused helium ion beam of sub-1-nm in diameter. A ~6 nm wide suspended graphene nanoribbons are fabricated with electrical contacts, and the electrical transport characteristics are discussed along with their potential impact on the performance of graphene-NEMS-based single-molecular detection. We also demonstrate large-area arrays of 3-4 nanometer pores with pitch of down to ~ 16 nm patterned on suspended GNRs and their unique properties as phononic crystals. The possibility of their application to nanoscale heat phonon engineering will be discussed.
