  • Patent number: 8906245
    Abstract: A method for transferring PMMA-coated graphene can transfer graphene to a wide variety of different substrate surfaces. It transfers graphene to different surfaces by using of Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), polymer such as sponge, and deionized (DI) water. This method comprises easy steps of coating CVD graphene with a layer of PMMA; placing the PMMA-coated CVD graphene onto a polymer to form a PMMA-coated CVD graphene on the surface of a polymer; putting this polymer with PMMA-coated CVD graphene in DI water, and finally scooping up the PMMA-coated CVD graphene with one target substrate. In this way, it transfers the CVD graphene to a target substrate surface.
