Description

A kind of on insulating substrate the method for growing large-area Graphene
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of on insulating substrate the method for growing large-area Graphene.
Background technology
Owing to finding dirac electron energy band structure that Graphene is special and unusual fractional quantum hall effect, two professors of the Konstantin Novoselov of Univ Manchester UK and Andre Geim have obtained the Nobel Prize in physics of 2010.Under room temperature, carrier mobility and saturating speed high in Graphene make Graphene be expected to replace silicon materials to become the base mateiral of large-scale integrated circuit of future generation.Present stage, the heavy industrialization of Graphene used the growth aspect mainly be confined to Graphene.In recent years, the research of Graphene growth aspect, particularly large area deposition cheaply more and more are subject to domestic and international company, institute and the researchist's of colleges and universities extensive concern.
Although the Graphene that the rare mechanically peel method of preparation graphite that proposed in 2005 obtains has the highest quality of Graphene of present report, but the size of the Graphene that this method obtains has been subject to very serious restriction, generally only has the size of tens microns, and the cost of the Graphene of the method preparation and skills involved in the labour require very high, be only suitable in the research in laboratory and be unfavorable for industrialized extensive growth (K.S.Novoselov et al., Nature438,197.2005).2006, Walter de professor Heer of georgia ,u.s.a Polytechnics proposed ultrahigh vacuum(HHV) by the method (C.Berger et al., Science312,1191.2006) of thermally decomposed carbon SiClx extending and growing graphene.But the expensive price of substrate material silicon carbide, the expensive device of the needed ultrahigh vacuum(HHV) of growth conditions and high temperature, stable, uniform heating system have increased to a great extent the cost of scale operation, thereby have made heavy industrialization be subject to huge obstruction.2009, Rodney professor S.Ruoff in Texas ,Usa university Jane Austen branch school adopts the growth method-chemical gaseous phase depositing process that meets heavy industrialization, take methane and hydrogen as source of the gas, utilize the katalysis of Copper Foil to grow large-area Graphene individual layer (X.Li et al. on Copper Foil, Science324,1312.2009).But due to the electroconductibility of substrate, if make unicircuit, need to the Graphene of growth be shifted.And the technique of this transfer step is quite loaded down with trivial details and require very high to technology and the skill level that shifts personnel.The pollution that may introduce in transfer process simultaneously and the abundant residues of metal ion at the interface and organic macromolecule make the degradation of quality in practical devices of Graphene clearly.In view of complicacy and the uncontrollability of above-mentioned factor, use from heavy industrialization based on the Graphene of the chemical vapor deposition growth of metal catalytic effect and also have very long stretch to walk.
Therefore, on insulating substrate, utilize chemical gaseous phase depositing process on a large scale growing graphene have great importance in the application of large-scale integrated circuit industry and the research of ultrafast electronics for Graphene.
