I have seen most papers reported on the adhesion energy between SiO2 substrate and graphene. However, it is quite hard to find information or data on the adhesion energies for graphene on other metal substrates such as aluminum and gold which can be use as substrate for device applications. It is important to know the adhesion energy between graphene or even the other 2D materials and the targeted substrate for successful DRY transfer of the material. As the interaction between 2D materials and the targeted substrate are mainly based on the dispersive adhesion known as the Van der Waals force. Does anyone has data on the adhesion energy of graphene on metal substrates other than SiO2? Or is it that the adhesion energy between graphene and the targeted metal substrate is always higher than the polymer support used during the transfer such as PDMS, PET, and PVA. Any help is appreciated.
