• Carrier injection velocity decreases & mobility increases with
increase in gate length.
• Ballistic conduction nature decreases with increase in LG
13. Some Experimental Outcomes
◇Channel Length(LG) down to 67nm.
◇Highest ballistic velocity and effective mobility achieved were 9.3× 107
cm/s
and 13700cm2/Vs.>> highest in any gFET.
14. Quantum Capacitance
• An important consideration for
low-density-of-states systems
e.g. 2-D materials.
• Acts in series with Electrostatic
Capacitance.
• 𝐶𝑒𝑞 = 𝐶 𝑜𝑥 𝐶 𝑄/ 𝐶 𝑜𝑥 + 𝐶 𝑄
• CQ prevents Ceq from being
reduced below CQ.

15. Effects of Quantum Capacitance
◇Degrades trans-conductance (gm) and output
conductance (gds) characteristics.
◇Achieved gm=600µS/µm & gds =300µS/µm.
◇Substantially worse than Si CMOS.
16. Conclusion
◇Ballistic Short-Channel h-BN encapsulated GFETs with
EOT<3.5nm exhibits highest achieved mobility and carrier
velocity.
◇Though shows some limitations due to some fundamental
limitations of graphene.
◇GFETs can be solution for future nanodevices.
