Graphene and Applications

Synthesis of graphene refers to any process for fabricating graphene. Mechanical exfoliation is probably the technique to attain single and few layered graphene produces from natural graphite by repeated peeling/exfoliation. Chemical vapour deposition has techniques for making thin continuous films with thickness control in micro-electronics. Plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition synthesizing large area graphene on copper foils using spin coated PMMA films. Graphene heterostructures are synthesized on cobalt substrates by using the molecular beam epitaxial growth.
