Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of metal atom-doped large-area regular epitaxial graphene, and applied to the technical field of microelectronics. Metal atoms are introduced to a SiC pyrolysis process and Ar atmosphere is adopted for protection in an auxiliary manner, so that the large-area regular epitaxial graphene can be prepared, external metal atoms also can be guided to be directly participated in a graphene lamination layer growth process, thereby promoting atom intercalation or hybridization between metal atoms and C atoms to realize doping of metal atoms, and avoiding damage to the overall structure of graphene caused by ion implantation; pretreatment of metal atom beams is the important premise of realizing doping, and by virtue of the Ar atmosphere environment, generate of surface holes can be suppressed, so that regular and uniform surface appearance of the epitaxial graphene sample is ensured; and the preparation method is simple in technical idea, high in operability, is a stable and effective metal atom doping method, and capable of providing significant guidance and reference to optimization preparation and performance improvement of epitaxial graphene.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation and modification of two-dimensional thin film materials, and relates to a preparation method of large-area regular epitaxial graphene doped with metal atoms. Background technique [0002] Epitaxial graphene is produced by high-temperature pyrolysis of single-crystal SiC substrates. It can be directly applied to the production of electronic devices without transfer. It is expected to become an ideal candidate semiconductor material in the silicon-based post-Moore era. IBM Corporation of the United States has developed a field-effect transistor based on epitaxial graphene with a frequency up to 300 GHz, which has given people high hopes for its application in the field of microelectronics technology. Recently, more and more researchers are working on the large-area preparation, metal doping and regulation of the physical properties of epitaxial graphene. The interaction between metal atoms and ...
