Graphene nanoscroll, because of attractive electronic, mechanical, thermoelectric and optoelectronics properties, is a suitable candidate for transistor and sensor applications. In this research, the electrical transport characteristics of high-performance field effect transistors based on graphene nanoscroll are studied in the framework of analytical modeling. To this end, the characterization of the proposed device is investigated by applying the analytical models of carrier concentration, quantum capacitance, surface potential, threshold voltage, subthreshold slope and drain induced barrier lowering.

The proposed device consists of a triangle defect coupled with an ellipse-ring resonator based on a metal-insulator-metal platform. By the finite-difference time-domain method, the transmission characteristics are numerically studied in detail.

Modulating the refractive index of special regions in the suggested structure by the EIT phenomenon leads to a relatively wideband slow light device with adjustable group index in the same structure. Using this feature, a small and compact delay line is introduced that has many applications in optical telecommunications, especially in buffers.
