Substrate Engineering for CVD Growth of Single Crystal Graphene

Single crystal graphene (SCG) has attracted enormous attention for its unique potential for next-generation high-performance optoelectronics. In the absence of grain boundaries, the exceptional intrinsic properties of graphene are preserved by SCG. Currently, chemical vapor deposition (CVD) has been recognized as an effective method for the large-scale synthesis of graphene films. However, polycrystalline films are usually obtained and the...
