  • Abstract
    This paper presents Schottky diodes based on graphene nanoribbons (GNRs). We show that double gate GNR field effect transistors (FETs) with a p-type semiconducting GNR and asymmetric Schottky contacts provide a good rectification characteristic. The diode rectification can be tuned through the use of different GNRs with various widths. A rectification ratio of ~ 2×107 is achieved for an N = 10 GNR at a low gate bias voltage of 0.2 V.
