This is due to coincidence lattice matching in sapphire's hexagonal structure that appears after annealing. At this stage of my research, we are testing deposition rates of graphene on sapphire which has led to turbostratic, random and disorganized, growth. This poster demonstrates the properties of our turbostratic graphene from data collected by Raman spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), sheet resistance measurements, and optical imaging.en-USCollege of Science and EngineeringDepartment of Electrical and Computer EngineeringPresentation
