Abstract :
We present recent progress in graphene material, graphene FETs, heterostructures, graphene NEMS, and potentially disruptive RF applications of GFETs such as linear mixers and high dynamic range radiometers. Continuous development of emerging graphene would potentially improve existing RF systems with integration with standard Si/III-V RFICs similar to DARPA heterogeneous integration (DAHI) efforts, and enable a new generation of high performance 3D-RFICs.
