NOVELTY - Functional anchor structure (200) comprises a graphene-like carbon, a conducting material, and a functional linker linking the graphene-like carbon and the conducting material.    USE - Functional anchor structure for use in manufacturing integrated circuits and fuel cell (claimed).    ADVANTAGE - The structure allows an attachment between the graphene-like carbon and that conducting material that ensures mechanical stability, integrity of the electrical contact, thermal contact and/or minimized contact resistance and capacitance between the conducting material and the graphene-like carbon. It provides an electrode graphene-like carbon interface in any devices, structures and systems where the interface is used or desirable.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for:    (1) integrated circuit comprising the structure;    (2) method of manufacturing integrated circuits comprising providing a conducting material to form electrode(s), a graphene-like carbon to form portion(s) of an interconnect layer and functional linker to link the conducting material and the graphene-like carbon, and contacting the electrode with the functional linker and the interconnect layer to form an electrode-functional linker- interconnect layer structure that is part of the integrated circuit; and    (3) fuel cell comprising a support (240) comprising the graphene-like carbon, an anode comprising the conducting material, a proton exchange electrolyte membrane, and a cathode comprising the conducting material.    The anode and/or the cathode are linked to the graphene-like carbon by the functional linker capable of linking the conducting material and the graphene-like carbon in a graphene-like carbon-functional linker-conducting material structure.    DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The drawing shows a schematic view of the functional anchor structure.
