Abstract:
Recent years have witnessed advances in chemical vapor deposition growth of graphene films on metal foils, with fine scalability and thickness controllability. However, challenges for wrinkle-free, defect-free and large-area uniformity remain to be tackled. In addition, the real commercial applications of graphene films still require industrially compatible transfer techniques with reliable performance of transferred graphene, excellent production capacity, and suitable cost. Currently, transferred graphene films, particularly with large area, still suffer from the presence of transfer-related cracks, wrinkles and contaminations, which would strongly deteriorate the quality and uniformity of transferred graphene films. Potential applications of graphene films include moisture barrier films, transparent conductive films, electromagnetic shielding films, and optical communications; such applications call different requirements upon performance of transferred graphene, which in turn, determine the suitable transfer techniques. Beside the reliable transfer process, automatic machines should be well developed for the future batch transfer of graphene films, ensuring the repeatability and scalability. This minireview provides a summary of recent advances in the transfer of graphene films and offers a perspective for future directions of transfer techniques that are compatible for industrial batch transfer.
