Abstract

Large hexagonal single-crystalline domains of single-layer graphene are epitaxially grown by ambient-pressure chemical vapor deposition over a thin Cu(111) film deposited on c-plane sapphire. The hexagonal graphene domains with a maximum size of 100 m are oriented in the same direction due to the epitaxial growth. Reflecting high crystallinity, a clear band structure with the Dirac cone is observed by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES), and a high carrier mobility exceeding 4,000 cm2 V-1 s-1 is obtained on SiO ₂/Si at room temperature. Our epitaxial approach combined with large domain growth is expected to contribute to future electronic applications.
