具有特定边界的石墨烯纳米结构在纳电子学、自旋电子学等研究领域表现出良好的应用前景.然而石墨烯加工成纳米结构时,无序的边界不可避免地会降低其载流子迁移率.氢等离子体各向异性刻蚀技术是加工具备完美边界石墨烯微纳结构的一项关键技术,刻蚀后的石墨烯呈现出规则的近原子级平整的锯齿形边界.本文研究了氮化硼上锯齿形边界石墨烯反点网络的磁输运性质,低磁场下可以观测到载流子围绕着一个空位缺陷运动时的公度振荡磁阻峰.随着磁场的增大,朗道能级简并度逐渐增大,载流子的磁输运行为从Shubnikov-de Haas振荡逐渐向量子霍尔效应转变.在零磁场附近可以观测到反点网络周期性空位缺陷的边界散射所导致的弱局域效应.研究结果表明,在氮化硼衬底上利用氢等离子体刻蚀技术加工锯齿形边界石墨烯反点网络,其样品质量会明显提高,这种简单易行的方法为后续高质量石墨烯反点网络的输运研究提供了新思路.Graphene nanostructures with defined edges are proposed as a promising platform for the realization of nano-electronics and spin-electronics. However, patterned graphene nanostructure can lead to extra damage and drastically reduce its charge carrier mobility due to the edge disorder. The high flexibility of a top-down patterning method with edge smoothness is extremely desirable. Hydrogen plasma enhanced anisotropic etching graphene is demonstrated to be an efficient method of fabricating zigzag-edge graphene nanostructures. In addition, boron nitride is shown to be an excellent substrate for graphene due to its atomic flatness. Here in this work, we fabricate zigzag edge graphene antidot lattices on a boron nitride substrate via dry transfer method and traditional electron beam lithography, and reactive ion etching followed by hydrogen anisotropic etching approach. At low magnetic fields, weak localization is observed and its visibility is enhanced by intervalley scattering on antidot edges. We observe commensurate features in magnetotransport properties which stem from carriers around one antidot, signifying the high quality of our patterned samples. At high magnetic field, crossover from Shubnikov-de Haas oscillation to quantum Hall effect can be clearly observed due to the high mobility of our zigzag edge graphene antidot lattices. The transport properties of our patterned samples suggest that our fabrication method paves the way for achieving high quality graphene antidot lattices. High quality zigzag edge graphene antidot lattice might be a great platform to study the transport properties of lateral superlattice potential modulation graphene.
