Multilayer graphene (MLG) films were grown chemical vapour deposition (CVD) on molybdenum carbide (MoCx) substrates. We fabricated the catalytic MoCx films by plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition. The mechanism of graphene growth is studied and analysed for amorphous and crystalline MoCx films. In addition, we present a complete bottom up patterned graphene growth (GG) on pre-patterned MoCx ALD performed at 50ºC. Selective CVD GG eliminates the need to pattern or transfer the graphene film

... retain its pristine, as grown, qualities. Furthermore, we fabricated MLG directly on 100 nm suspended SiN membrane. We demonstrate these qualities with characterisation of the MLG using Raman spectroscopy, and analyse the samples by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction measurements. The techniques of graphene device manufacturing demonstrated here pave the path for large scale production of graphene applications.
