The exceptional properties of graphene make it a promising candidate in the development of next‐generation electronic, optoelectronic, photonic and photovoltaic devices. A holy grail in graphene research is the synthesis of large‐sized single‐crystal graphene, in which the absence of grain boundaries guarantees its excellent intrinsic properties and high performance in the devices. Nowadays, most attention has been drawn to the suppression of nucleation density by using low feeding gas during the growth process to allow only one nucleus to grow with enough space. However, because the nucleation is a random event and new nuclei are likely to form in the very long growth process, it is difficult to achieve industrial‐level wafer‐scale or beyond (e.g. 30 cm in diameter) single‐crystal graphene. Another possible way to obtain large single‐crystal graphene is to realize ultrafast growth, where once a nucleus forms, it grows up so quickly before new nuclei form. Therefore ultrafast growth provides a new direction for the synthesis of large single‐crystal graphene, and is also of great significance to realize large‐scale production of graphene films (fast growth is more time‐efficient and cost‐effective), which is likely to accelerate various graphene applications in industry.

A B S T R A C TThe interaction between graphene and metals represents an important issue for the largearea preparation of graphene, graphene transfer and the contact quality in graphene devices. We demonstrate a simple method for estimating and manipulating the level of interaction between graphene and copper single crystals through heat treatment, at temperatures from 298 K to 1073 K. We performed in-situ Raman spectroscopy showing Cu face-specific behavior of the overlying graphene during the heat treatment. On Cu (1 1 1) the interaction is consistent with theoretical predictions and remains stable, whereas on Cu(1 0 0) and Cu (1 1 0), the initially very weak interaction and charge transfer can be tuned by heating. Our results also suggest that graphene grown on Cu(1 0 0) and Cu(1 1 0) is detached from the copper substrate, thereby possibly enabling an easier graphene transfer process as compared to Cu(1 1 1).

“…90 The high surface areas of the carbon nanomaterials (often combined with their electronic properties) make them promising candidates for gas/energy storage, 75,91 however, the process is inherently limited to small-scale device studies. The bottom-up synthesis of large grain-size, defect-free crystals of graphene is currently difficult to achieve 99 as generally graphene flakes of varying sizes and crystallographic domains are formed (although crystals on the millimeter scale can be grown 100 ). Typically, CVD-grown graphene is synthesized on a metal substrate (Ni, Cu) and is transferred to the end-target substrate using polymer stamps that leave behind residues that can affect final mechanical and electronic properties.…”

Charged Carbon Nanomaterials: Redox Chemistries of Fullerenes, Carbon Nanotubes, and Graphenes

Since the discovery of buckminsterfullerene over 30 years ago, sp 2 -hybridised carbon nanomaterials (including fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, and graphene) have stimulated new science and technology across a huge range of fields. Despite the impressive intrinsic properties, challenges in processing and chemical modification continue to hinder applications. Charged carbon nanomaterials (CCNs), formed via the reduction or oxidation of these carbon nanomaterials, facilitate dissolution, purification, separation, chemical modification, and assembly. This approach provides a compelling alternative to traditional damaging and restrictive liquid phase exfoliation routes. The broad chemistry of CCNs not only provides a versatile and potent means to modify the properties of the parent nanomaterial but also raises interesting scientific issues. This review focuses on the fundamental structural forms: buckminsterfullerene, single-walled carbon nanotubes, and single-layer graphene, describing the generation of their respective charged nanocarbon species, their interactions with solvents, chemical reactivity, specific (opto)electronic properties, and emerging applications.
