A good Cu substrate is of low impurity and low roughness because the defects on the Cu surface have a higher surface energy that carbon prefers to nucleate at these sites. Thus, the high nucleation density results in the small sizes of single-crystal graphene domains. The graphene domains will then merge into one continuous film and form the first monolayer graphene due to the self-limiting effect as mentioned above. The higher the nucleation density, the more boundaries form on the surface, which greatly blocks the electron transport [28].

Therefore, markedly improved surface morphology was obtained and thus a high-quality and large-size graphene layer was produced. Because of the insulating nature of SiC, graphene grown on SiC substrate can be directly used without transferring to another insulator substrate. As well, the preparation process of epitaxial growth is close to standard preparation conditions in semiconductor manufacturing.
