Abstract:

Epitaxial growth of graphene on metals has been known about for five decades and has encountered renewed interest since 2006–2007 when it was realized that graphene mass production is a major hurdle in the development of graphene-based applications. With the help of model systems, i.e. prepared in clean conditions (ultra-high vacuum) and at clean surfaces (single-crystalline metallic ones), much progress has been made towards the understanding of graphene growth on metals, from the elementary processes governing growth towards the tailoring of the ...
