The novel graphene chip applicable to an MCBJ is made by adopting the graphene metal wires which are relatively low in price and a simple stainless steel sheet structure; some defects of a metal electrode are successfully overcome; the graphene electrode chip has advantages of being low in cost, simple and convenient to operateion and further high in the stability of a molecular junction stability, and the like. The graphene electrode chip can be prepared in a common chemical laboratory, and has favorable generality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a graphene electrode chip, in particular to a graphene electrode chip used in mechanically controllable splitting technology. Background technique [0002] Mechanically Controllable Break Junction (MCBJ) method is a method used to study the electrical properties of single or a few atoms, molecules, supramolecules and atomic clusters. The MCBJ method has the ability to quickly construct a large number of molecular junctions in a short period of time. Following the scanning tunneling microscope (Scanning Tunneling Microscope, STM), atomic force microscope (Atomic Force Microscope, AFM), micro-nano processing technology and other series can be manipulated at the nanoscale After the experimental method, MCBJ has further promoted the development of molecular electronics because of its relatively low price, simple device, easy operation and high repeatability. [0003] The chip is the core part of the MCBJ experimental setup. At pr...
