A Guide to Graphene Field-Effect Transistor (GFET) Chips

GFET chips offer scientists direct access to the most recent graphene devices. This supports application-driven research by eliminating the need to develop GFETs from scratch. Each chip includes 36 individual GFETs distributed in distinctive patterns—06-2555: Grid pattern; 06-2560: Quadrant pattern.

Features

  • 36 individual GFETs per chip
  • Devices not encapsulated ready for customers’ functionalization
  • Mobilities typically in excess of 1000 cm2/V.s
  • Ideal platform device for the research and development of new sensors

Applications

  • Graphene device research
  • Bioelectronics
  • Chemical sensors
  • Magnetic sensors
  • Biosensors
  • Photodetectors
