چکیده

A gas phase controlled graphene synthesis resembling a CVD process that does not critically depend on cooling rates is reported. The controllable catalytic CVD permits high quality large-area graphene formation with deft control over the thickness from monolayers to thick graphitic structures at temperatures as low as 750 degrees C.

Layer-by-layer synthesis of large-area graphene films by thermal cracker enhanced gas source molecular beam epitaxy

A thermal cracker enhanced gas source molecular beam epitaxy system was used to synthesize large-area graphene. Hydrocarbon gas molecules were broken by thermal cracker at very high temperature of 1200 C and then impinged on a nickel substrate. High-quality, large-area graphene films were achieved at 800 C, and this was confirmed by both Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. ...

Chemical vapor deposition of N-doped graphene and carbon films: the role of precursors and gas phase.

Thermally induced chemical vapor deposition (CVD) was used to study the formation of nitrogen-doped graphene and carbon films on copper from aliphatic nitrogen-containing precursors consisting of C1- and C2-units and (hetero)aromatic nitrogen-containing ring systems. The structure and quality of the resulting films were correlated to the influence of the functional groups of the precursor molec...

Synthesis of Large Area Graphene for High Performance in Flexible Optoelectronic Devices

This work demonstrates an attractive low-cost route to obtain large area and high-quality graphene films by using the ultra-smooth copper foils which are typically used as the negative electrodes in lithium-ion batteries. We first compared the electronic transport properties of our new graphene film with the one synthesized by using commonly used standard copper foils in chemical vapor depositi...

Cobalt-assisted large-area epitaxial graphene growth in thermal cracker enhanced gas source molecular beam epitaxy

Large-area epitaxial graphene films were grown on cobalt by thermal cracker enhanced gas source molecular beam epitaxy. Growth conditions including growth temperature and growth time play important roles in the resulting morphology of as-grown films. High-quality graphene films can be achieved in a small growth window. Fast cooling rate was not required in this process due to direct growth mech...
