Abstract
Thermal annealing of graphene was studied to improve the thermal stability. During the annealing under an Ar atmosphere with temperature from 100 °C to 600 °C, graphene exhibits partial removal of PMMA residues, low density of defect cracks in SEM images and relatively low ID/IG ratios in Raman spectrum probing. For a top-gated graphene transistor with thermal annealing, it performs high carrier mobility up to 3500 cm2 V−1 s−1 and slightly asymmetric bipolar behaviours as well as slight Dirac point variation within ±0.2 V.
