چکیده

Successfully integrating graphene in standard processes for applications in electronics relies on the synthesis of high-quality films. In this work we study Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition (LPCVD) growth of bilayer graphene on the outside surface of copper enclosures. The effect of several parameters on bilayer growth rate and domain size was investigated and high-coverage bilayers films were successfully grown. Furthermore, the quality of the bilayer was confirmed using Raman spectroscopy. Finally, we consider future studies that may reveal the underlying mechanisms behind bilayer growth.

Synthesis of high-quality monolayer and bilayer graphene on copper using chemical vapor deposition

The mechanisms determining the growth of high-quality monolayer and bilayer graphene on Cu using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) were investigated. It is shown that graphene growth on Cu is not only determined by the process parameters during growth, but also substantially influenced by the quality of Cu substrate and how the Cu substrate is pretreated. It is found that the micro-topography of ...

AB-Stacked Multilayer Graphene Synthesized <italic>via</italic> Chemical Vapor Deposition: A Characterization by Hot Carrier Transport

T he synthesis of graphene on copper foils by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) has attracted considerable attention because of its potential in practical applications. 6 The quality of CVD graphene has yet to match that of the graphene mechanically exfoliated from pristine graphite, and therefore, the CVD growth techniques are still under very active research. Various thermodynamic conditions in...

Rapid identification of stacking orientation in isotopically labeled chemical-vapor grown bilayer graphene by Raman spectroscopy.

The growth of large-area bilayer graphene has been of technological importance for graphene electronics. The successful application of graphene bilayers critically relies on the precise control of the stacking orientation, which determines both electronic and vibrational properties of the bilayer system. Toward this goal, an effective characterization method is critically needed to allow resear...

Controlled synthesis of bilayer graphene on nickel

We report a uniform and low-defect synthesis of bilayer graphene on evaporated polycrystalline nickel films. We used atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition with ultra-fast substrate cooling after exposure to methane at 1,000°C. The optimized process parameters, i.e., growth time, annealing profile and flow rates of various gases, are reported. By using Raman spectroscopy mapping, the ra...
