Abstract

A method for making epitaxial structure is provided. The method includes providing a substrate having an epitaxial growth surface, growing a buffer layer on the epitaxial growth surface; placing a graphene layer on the buffer layer; epitaxially growing an epitaxial layer on the buffer layer; and removing the substrate. The graphene layer includes a number of apertures to expose a part of the buffer layer. The epitaxial layer is grown from the exposed part of the buffer layer and through the apertures.
