Abstract
A method for preparing graphene by reaction with Cl2 based on annealing with assistant metal film is provided, comprising the following steps: applying normal wash to a Si-substrate, then putting the Si-substrate into a reaction chamber of a CVD system and evacuating, rising the temperature to 950° C.-1150° C. gradually, supplying C3H8 and carbonizing the Si-substrate for 3-10 min; rising the temperature to 1150° C.-1350° C. rapidly, supplying C3H8 and SiH4, growing a 3C—SiC hetero-epitaxial film on the carbonized layer, and then reducing the temperature to ambient temperature under the protection of H2 gradually, introducing the grown sample wafer of 3C—SiC into a quartz tube, heating to 700-1100° C., supplying mixed gas of Ar and Cl2, and reacting Cl2 with 3C—SiC to generate a carbon film, applying the sample wafer of carbon film on a metal film, annealing at 900° C.-1100° C. for 10-30 min to reconstruct the carbon film into graphene; and taking out of the metal film from the sample wafer of graphene to obtain large area graphene. The graphene obtained by the method has large area, smooth surface, good continuity, and low porosity; and the product can be used to seal gas and liqu…
