BARRIER GUIDED GROWTH OF MICROSTRUCTURED AND NANOSTRUCTURED GRAPHENE AND GRAPHITE

摘要

Methods for growing microstructured and nanostructured graphene by growing the microstructured and nanostructured graphene from the bottom-up directly in the desired pattern are provided. The graphene structures can be grown via chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on substrates that are partially covered by a patterned graphene growth barrier which guides the growth of the graphene.
