High-performance ultra-low leakage current graphene-based screen-printed field-effect transistor on paper substrate

Exploiting the advantages of additive patterning process over complex fabrication processes, herein we report the fabrication of field-effect transistor (FET) using the screen-printing method. The graphene conductive composite dielectric ink as the channel and the dielectric layer respectively was screen printed on cellulose paper substrate. The fabricated device shows the hole and electron mobility of 135 cm(2)/V s and 98 cm(2)/V s respectively with an ultra-low leakage current of similar to 25 nA. The proposed technique can be used for large-scale roll-to-roll commercial manufacturing of disposable FET-based sensors such as temperature and IR sensors, health monitoring devices etc.
