abstract = {Graphene field-effect transistors are widely used for
development of biosensors. However, certain fundamental
questions about details of their functioning have not been
fully understood yet. One of these questions is the presence
of gate/leakage currents in the electrolyte-gated
configuration. Here, we report our observations and causes
of this phenomenon on chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown
graphene. We observed transistor’s gate currents occurring
at the surface of graphene exposed to the electrolyte. Gate
currents are capacitive when the graphene channel is doped
by holes and Faradic when it is doped by electrons in
field-effect measurements. We prove that Faradic currents
are attributed to the reduction of oxygen dissolved in the
aqueous solution and their magnitude increases with each
measurement. We employed cyclic voltammetry with a redox
probe Fc(MeOH)2 to characterize changes in the graphene
structure that are responsible for this activation.
Collectively, our results reveal that through the course of
catalytic oxygen reduction on the transistor’s surface,
its electroactivity toward an out-of-plane heterogeneous
electron transfer increases.},
