For a technological use of graphene, it is desirable to grow it on a large scale with a reproducible high quality. The best quality up to date is achieved by growth on metal substrates. Especially on Ir(111), strictly monoatomic graphene sheets of well defined orientation and macroscopic extension are achieved [1]. For application graphene on metals is non-suitable. Therefore, a transfer is necessary. Here, we present a method for a dry transfer of graphene grown on Ir(111).
First, the epitaxially grown graphene layer was investigated by LEED and STM. Afterwards, graphene was intercalated by Br2 and examined by SEM. The transfer process was conducted by attaching adhesive tapes as supporting material and subsequent removal. Finally, the surface was analyzed by SEM. Raman spectroscopy was carried out to prove the transfer of graphene onto the adhesive tapes.
