Hydrogen flame synthesis of few-layer graphene from a solid carbon source on hexagonal boron nitride

Abstract

We report a new hydrogen flame synthesis method to successfully grow graphene on h-BN flakes in 20 seconds without using any catalyst. At the initial stage graphene layers anchored to the ([1 with combining macron]100) surface plane of the h-BN crystal, and afterwards the graphene grew up beyond substrates to form high electrical conductivity quasi-freestanding nanosheets.
