Precision quantization of Hall resistance in transferred graphene

We show that quantum resistance standards made of transferred graphene reach the uncertainty of semiconductor devices, the current reference system in metrology. A large graphene device (150 \times 30 \mum2), exfoliated and transferred onto GaAs, revealed a quantization with a precision of (-5.1 \pm 6.3) \times 10-9 accompanied by a vanishing longitudinal resistance at current levels exceeding 10 \muA. While such performance had previously only been achieved with epitaxially grown graphene, our experiments demonstrate that transfer steps, inevitable for exfoliated graphene or graphene grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), are compatible with the requirements of high quality quantum resistance standards.

Graphene p-n junction Arrays as Quantum-Hall Resistance Standards

We demonstrate a device concept to fabricate resistance standards made of quantum Hall series arrays by using p-type and n-type graphene. The ambipolar nature of graphene allows fabricating series quantum Hall resistors without complex multi-layer metal interconnect technology, which is required when using conventional GaAs two-dimensional electron systems. As a prerequisite for a precise resistance standard we confirm the vanishing of longitudinal resistance across a p-n junction for metrological relevant current levels in the range of a few \muA.

Magneto-Transport Properties of Exfoliated Graphene on GaAs

We studied the magneto-transport properties of graphene prepared by exfoliation on a III V semiconductor substrate. Tuneability of the carrier density of graphene was achieved by using a doped GaAs substrate as a back-gate. A GaAs/AlAs multilayer, designed to render the exfoliated graphene flakes visible, also provides the required back-gate insulation. Good tuneability of the graphene carrier density is obtained, and the typical Dirac resistance characteristic is observed despite the limited height of the multilayer barrier compared to the usual SiO2 oxide barrier on doped silicon. In a magnetic field weak localization effects as well as the quantum Hall effect of a graphene monolayer are studied.
