Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method includes forming a first graphene film on a first substrate, applying a support film to the first graphene film, removing the first substrate to form a structure where the first graphene film is supported by the support film, forming a second graphene film on a second substrate, transferring the first graphene film supported by the support film onto the second graphene film formed on the second substrate to form a multilayer graphene film where the first graphene film and the second graphene film are stacked, removing the second substrate to form a structure where the multilayer graphene film is supported by the support film, transferring the multilayer graphene film onto a third substrate, and removing the support film to form a structure where the multilayer graphene film is formed on the third substrate.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A method, comprising: forming a first graphene film on a first substrate; applying a support film to the first graphene film; removing the first substrate to form a structure where the first graphene film is supported by the support film; forming a second graphene film on a second substrate; transferring the first graphene film supported by the support film onto the second graphene film formed on the second substrate to form a multilayer graphene film where the first graphene film and the second graphene film are stacked; removing the second substrate to form a structure where the multilayer graphene film is supported by the support film; transferring the multilayer graphene film onto a third substrate; and removing the support film to form a structure where the multilayer graphene film is formed on the third substrate. 2 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising: before transferring the multilayer graphene film onto the third substrate, repeating a process of forming another graphene film on another substrate, transferring the multilayer graphene film supported by the support film onto the another graphene film formed on the another substrate, and removing the another substrate to form the multilayer graphene film supported by the support film and including three or more stacked graphene films. 3 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first substrate is a first catalyst for forming the first graphene film; and the second substrate is a second catalyst for forming the second graphene film. 4 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a crystal orientation of the first substrate is the same as a crystal orientation of the second substrate; and a crystal orientation of the first graphene film is the same as a crystal orientation of the second graphene film. 5 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each of the first substrate and the second substrate comprises copper; the first substrate is removed by using ferric chloride; and the second substrate is removed by using ferric chloride.
