Abstract
The present disclosure is directed towards systems for transferring graphene from the surface of one substrate to another. In one particular embodiment, the graphene layer is grown on a surface of a first substrate, where the bottom of the first substrate is then affixed to the surface of a second substrate. The second substrate may include material made of a rigid or semi-rigid composition to provide structural support and backing to the first substrate. The graphene layer may then be delaminated from the first substrate and transferred to a target surface, such as the surface of an electronic device or biosensor.
Claims9
A system for transferring graphene comprising:
- a graphene wafer comprising:
- a growth substrate for growing a graphene layer, wherein the growth substrate is defined by an outer edge scored with a plurality of score marks;
- and
- a transitory substrate affixed to the growth substrate;
- a container filled with a conductive solution configured, when electrified, to form bubbles at least at the outer edge of the growth substrate;
- and
- an arm connected to a platform supporting the graphene wafer for immersing the platform in and out of the conductive solution.
