  1. Seeding Conformal Dielectrics on Graphene Monica Olvera, Northwestern University, DMR 1121262 J. M. P. Alaboson, Q. H. Wang, J. D. Emery, A. L. Lipson, M. J. Bedzyk, J. W. Elam, M. J. Pellin, and M. C. Hersam, Northwestern University Materials Research Science & Engineering Center The development of graphene-based nanoelectronics requires the deposition of ultrathin and pinhole-free high-k dielectric films at the wafer scale. In this work, we demonstrate that self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) act as effective organic seeding layers for atomic layer deposition (ALD) of HfO2 and Al2O3 on graphene. Whereas identical ALD conditions lead to incomplete dielectric deposition on bare graphene, the PTCDA seeding layer yields highly uniform and conformal films. Capacitors based on PTCDA-seeded dielectrics show high capacitance values (~700 nF/cm2) and low leakage currents (<10-8 A/cm2). These results demonstrate the viability of sublimated organic SAMs as seeding layers for high-k dielectric films in graphene-based nanoelectronics.. Atomic layer deposition growth of conformal, pinhole-free high-k dielectric films are seeded on epitaxial graphene on SiC(0001) via vacuum deposited PTCDA self-assembled monolayers. J. M. P.
