Correlation between material quality and high frequency performance of graphene field-effect transistors

Other conference contribution, 2019

Correlations between material quality, equivalent circuit and high frequency parameters of the graphene field-effect transistors, such as mobility, contact resistivity, carrier velocity, drain conductivity, transit frequency and maximum frequency of oscillation, have been established via applying drain resistance, velocity and saturation velocity models. The correlations allow for understanding dominant limitations of the high frequency performance of transistors, which clarifies the ways of their further development. In particular, the relatively high drain conductivity is currently main limiting factor, which, however, can be counterbalanced by increasing the carrier velocity via operating transistors at higher fields, in the velocity saturation mode.
