We report a direct correlation between carrier mobility and Raman topography of epitaxial graphene (EG) grown on silicon carbide (SiC). We show the Hall mobility of material on the Si-face of SiC [SiC(0001)] is not only highly dependent on thickness uniformity but also on monolayer strain uniformity. Only when both thickness and strain are uniform over a significant fraction (> 40%) of the device active area does the mobility exceed 1000 cm2/V-s. Additionally, we achieve high mobility epitaxial graphene (18,100 cm2/V-s at room temperature) on the C-face of SiC [SiC(000-1)] and show that carrier mobility depends strongly on the graphene layer stacking. These findings provide a means to rapidly estimate carrier mobility and provide a guide to achieve very high mobility in epitaxial graphene. Our results suggest that ultra-high mobilities (>50,000 cm2/V-s) are achievable via the controlled formation of uniform, rotationally faulted epitaxial graphene.

We utilize an organic polymer buffer layer between graphene and conventional gate dielectrics in top-gated graphene transistors. Unlike other insulators, this dielectric stack does not significantly degrade carrier mobility, allowing for high field-e ffect mobilities to be retained in top-gate operation. This is demonstrated in both two-point and four-point analysis, and in the high-frequency operation of a graphene transistor. Temperature dependence of the carrier mobility suggests that phonons are the dominant scatterers in these devices.
High-performance graphene field-effect transistors have been fabricated on epitaxial graphene synthesized on a two-inch SiC wafer, achieving a cutoff frequency of 100 GHz for a gate length of 240 nm. The high-frequency performance of these epitaxial graphene transistors not only shows the highest speed for any graphene devices up to date, but it also exceeds that of Si MOSFETs at the same gate length. The result confirms the high potential of graphene for advanced electronics applications, marking an important milestone for carbon electronics.
It is widely assumed that the dominant source of scattering in graphene is charged impurities in a substrate. We have tested this conjecture by studying graphene placed on various substrates and in high-k media. Unexpectedly, we have found no signifi cant changes in carrier mobility either for different substrates or by using glycerol, ethanol and water as a top dielectric layer. This suggests that Coulomb impurities are not the scattering mechanism that limits the mean free path currently attainable for graphene on a substrate.

We discovered that perovskite (Ba,La)SnO3 can have excellent carrier mobility even though its band gap is large. The Hall mobility of Ba0.98La0.02SnO3 crystals with the n-type carrier concentration of sim 8-10times10 19 cm-3 is found to be sim 103 cm 2 V-1s-1 at room temperature, and the precise measurement of the band gap Delta of a BaSnO3 crystal shows Delta=4.05 eV, which is significantly larger than those of other transparent conductive oxides. The high mobility with a wide band gap indicates that (Ba,La)SnO3 is a promising candidate for transparent conductor applications and also epitaxial all-perovskite multilayer devices.

The thermoelectric response of high mobility single layer epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide substrates as a function of temperature and magnetic field have been investigated. For the temperature dependence of the thermopower, a strong deviation f rom the Mott relation has been observed even when the carrier density is high, which reflects the importance of the screening effect. In the quantum Hall regime, the amplitude of the thermopower peaks is lower than a quantum value predicted by theories, despite the high mobility of the sample. A systematic reduction of the amplitude with decreasing temperature suggests that the suppression of the thermopower is intrinsic to Dirac electrons in graphene.
