Abstract

Persistent PMMA residue formed during a graphene transfer has been a culprit in the optimization of graphene device performance. We demonstrated a facile process to remove the PMMA residue using pulsed KrF laser annealing system at H2/Ar ambient. 10min laser annealing at 248nm could remove the PMMA residue as well as the methoxy and carboxyl function groups without causing noticeable damage to the graphene.
