Abstract
Description
Graphene Nanoribbons (GNRs), a 2-D material mono atomic layer of carbon atoms ordered in a honeycomb structure, have emerged as a potential candidate for next generation electronics. GNRs posse band gaps that are tuned by changing the width of nano ribbons, thus transform semiconductor to semimetal as the width of the ribbon changes. Graphene allows the realization of planar structures. Its excellent conductivity and highest carrier mobility at room temperature make it an ideal candidate for fabrication of nano-scale patch antenna and low power device applications. The principal objective of our research is to develop, model and prototype a nano-structured flexible patch antenna and nano-scale spiral antennas for biomedical applications.
