US Patent 8,906,772
  • Graphene Layer Formation at Low Substrate Temperature on a Metal and Carbon Based Substrate (ANL-IN-11-055)

The system and methods include direct growth of graphene on diamond and low temperature growth of graphene using a solid carbon source.

Benefits

  • Direct growth of graphene on insulating substrate at wafer-scale 
  • Order of magnitude increase in breakdown current density reaching up to one thousand times improvement over conventional metal based interconnects
