Abstract: A method of manufacturing a water-soluble transfer stack comprising multilayer two-dimensional material includes: i. Providing a growth stack comprising a growth substrate and a two-dimensional material layer; ii. Applying an intercalating solution, to the growth stack; iii. Applying a transfer layer comprising a water-soluble polymer film, to the growth stack; iv. Delaminating the water-soluble polymer film together with the two-dimensional material layer, thereby obtaining a delaminated film, from the growth substrate; and v. Repeating steps i.-iv. a number of times, wherein the delaminated film is used as the transfer layer; thereby manufacturing a water-soluble transfer stack comprising multilayer two-dimensional material.

Abstract: The present application discloses a method for separating a graphene-support layer laminate from a conducting substrate-graphene-support layer laminate, using a gentle, controllable electrochemical method. In this way, substrates which are fragile, expensive or difficult to manufacture can be used—and even re-used—without damage or destruction of the substrate or the graphene.

Abstract: One or more digital representations of single- (101) and/or few-layer (102) thin-film material are automatically identified robustly and reliably in a digital image (100), the digital image (100) having a predetermined number of color components, by—determining (304) a background color component of the digital image (100) for each color component, and—determining or estimating (306) a color component of thin-film material to be identified in the digital image (100) for each color component by obtaining a pre-determined contrast value (CR; CG; CB) for each color component and multiplying the respective background color component with a numerical difference between the pre-determined contrast value (CR; CG; CB) for a given color component and about 1,—identifying points or parts of the image with all color components being within a predetermined range of the determined or estimated color component.

Abstract: The multi-point probe comprises a supporting body defining a first surface, a first multitude of conductive probe arms each of the probe arms defining a proximal end and a distal end being positioned in co-planar relationship with the first surface of the supporting body. The probe arms are connected to the supporting body at the proximal ends thereof and have the distal ends freely extending from the supporting body, giving individually flexible motion to the first multitude of probe arms. The probe arms originate from a process of producing the probe arms on a wafer body in facial contact with the wafer body and removal of a part of the wafer body providing the supporting body and providing the probe arms freely extending therefrom. The multi-point probe further comprises a third multitude of tip elements extending from the distal end of the first multitude of probe arms. The tip elements originate from a process of metallization of electron beam depositions on the probe arms at the distal ends thereof.
