GFET-S22 (Die size 10 mm x 10 mm) - Processed in Clean Room Class 1000
The GFET S-22 chip from Graphenea is designed for measurements in liquid medium. The new version provides 4 independent set of graphene devices, each set with 3 individual channels, with encapsulation on the metal pads to avoid degradation and reduce leakage currents; the probe pads are located near the periphery of the chip. It also includes a non-encapsulated electrode at the center of the chip, which allows liquid gating without the need of an external gate electrode (such as Ag/AgCl probes). This device architecture enables each one of the set of devices to be modified individually, to obtain a multiplexed measurement.
