Experimental results of the measured surface acoustic wave (SAW) acoustoelectric effect (AE) using single-layer thin-film graphene on 128°, -cut, and -propagating lithium niobate (128-LN) are presented. The use of an AE amplifier in SAW communication devices, especially in gigahertz bands, could make fundamental advancements in radios, sensors, and other applications. Experimental results at 1350 MHz show the delay line asymmetry of 3 dB, given as the ratio of the forward versus reverse peak SAW frequency response, with an applied dc voltage on the graphene film.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
