Growing graphene on copper, using chemical vapor deposition is a promising technique allowing to produce high quality single crystals on large areas. However, recent results have shown that surface contamination by ionic substances and polymer residues substantially lower the quality of the grown graphene. In this work we present a novel transfer method where, in contrast to the common transfer technique, the graphene does not come into contact with any polymer or ionic substances. In a first step we grow graphene single crystals on copper with diameters of up to 400 µm. The graphene is then lifted off the copper with hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), using a van der Waals-pick up technique. Subsequently, the flakes are transferred to SiO₂ or hBN and are characterized using Raman spectroscopy. The Raman spectra show a low D-peak amplitude together with a ratio of G/2D of up to 10 and a G-Peak position around 1583cm⁻¹ suggesting a high crystal quality and a low doping concentration. Our novel technique additionally allows us to transfer high quality CVD grown graphene from copper onto arbitrary substrates, which makes it potentially interesting for a number of scalable applications.
