Direct-write electrochemical nanofabrication of ultrasmall graphene devices

Xiao Liu, Colm Durkan

Graphene nano-ribbons, GNRs, are promising channel materials for next-generation ultra-miniaturised devices due to their exceptional electrical and thermal properties which arise f…

Electrostatic edge effects versus edge doping in graphene nanoribbons: a scanning gate microscopy and modelling study

Colm Durkan, Xiao Liu, Ed Saunders

The charge neutrality point (CNP) of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) patterned by oxygen plasma etching moves towards zero as the ribbon narrows and, on 300 nm SiO2, changes sign below…

Ferrotronics for the creation of band gaps in Graphene

Qifang Wan, Zhuocong Xiao, Ahmed Kursumovic +2

We experimentally demonstrate a simple graphene/ ferrolectric device, termed Ferrotronic (electronic effect from ferroelectric) device in which the band-structure of single-layer g…

Unravelling the electrical properties of epitaxial Graphene nanoribbons

Zhuocong Xiao, Colm Durkan

The size-dependent electrical resistivity of single-layer graphene ribbons has been studied experimentally for ribbon widths from 16 nm to 320 nm. The experimental findings are tha…
