Abstract
Obstacles associated with graphene as transparent conductive films mainly consist of the difficulties in high-quality graphene synthesis, efficient transfer and doping of samples with lateral size of tens of centimeters for practical applications. Herein we demonstrate a hot-roll-pressing transfer technique followed by wet-chemical doping of large area graphene film grown on copper foil by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). This method enabled cost-effective and ultraclean transfer of single-layer graphene with an arbitrary size onto transparent ethylene vinyl acetate/polyethylene terephthalate (EVA/PET) substrate without any polymer residues. The sheet resistance of the single-layer graphene covered EVA/PET (graphene/EVA/PET) reached 200 Ω/sq with optical transparency of 87.3%. The graphene/EVA/PET film can be bent over 10000 cycles at a radius of 2 mm with ∼0.02% increase in sheet resistance, showing excellent mechanical flexibility for bendable electronics which was demonstrated by a capacitive-type touch screen based on the graphene/EVA/PET transparent conducting film.
