US Patent 8952258 Implementing graphene interconnect for high conductivity applications

A method, and structures for implementing enhanced interconnects for high conductivity applications. An interconnect structure includes an electrically conductive interconnect member having a predefined shape with spaced apart end portions extending between a first plane and a second plane. A winded graphene ribbon is carried around the electrically conductive interconnect member, providing increased electrical current carrying capability and increased thermal conductivity.
