Aachen Graphene & 2D Materials Center – From material science to new device applications

M I S S I O N

The Aachen Graphene & 2D Materials Center exploits the unique properties of graphene, two-dimensional (2D) materials and 2D heterostructures for different applications in the fields of electronics, sensors and photonics. The center brings together the complementary expertise and facilities of Aachen’s world leading research groups in the area of material science, analytics, device design and manufacturing, and hence covers the entire value chain needed to bridge the gap from the basic science to applications.

A scalable pathway for the mechanical transfer of graphene grown by CVD

Nowadays it is possible to grow high-quality graphene on large scale using chemical vapor deposition (CVD). What remains a major bottleneck for the industrialization of the material is the transfer of graphene from the growth substrate to a target one. A team of researchers from the University of Cambridge and RWTH Aachen University has now …
