Monolayer and bilayer graphenes have generated tremendous excitement as the potentially useful electronic materials due to their unique features.We report on monolayer and bilayer epitaxial graphene field-effect transistors(GFETs)fabricated on SiC substrates.Compared with monolayer GFETs,the bilayer GFETs exhibit a significant improvement in dc characteristics,including increasing current density Ids,improved transconductance g_m,reduced sheet resistance R_(on),and current saturation.The improved electrical properties and tunable bandgap in the bilayer graphene lead to the excellent dc performance of the bilayer GFETs.Furthermore,the improved dc characteristics enhance a better rf performance for bilayer graphene devices,demonstrating that the quasifree-standing bilayer graphene on SiC substrates has a great application potential for the future graphene-based electronics.
