  • ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE DEVICE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF
    Publication number: 20130168861
    Abstract: An electrically conductive device and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. According to the method, a protein tube portion and a conductor penetrating through the protein tube portion are formed on a graphene layer, and the conductor is in electrical contact with the graphene layer. A dummy dielectric material layer surrounding the protein tube portion can be formed on the graphene layer for support. The graphene layer can be protected from damage during the formation of the protein tube portion and the conductor because no etching process is employed in the formation. The method can facilitate the application of graphene in semiconductor devices as conductive interconnects.
