(a), The rms roughness for the graphene films transferred to Ti adhesion layers with various thicknesses. The variations in the rms roughness of the Ti/glass as a function of the Ti thickness are shown in (a). Two-dimensional AFM images (1 × 1 μm2) of the graphene films transferred to (b) 0, (c) 2, (d) 10 and (e) 20 nm-thick Ti adhesion layers. The upper insets in (c), (d) and (e) show the two-dimensional AFM images for Ti adhesion layers grown on the glass substrate. (f and g) Two-dimensional AFM images observed at 1 × 1 and 5 × 5 μm2 areas for the graphene films transferred to the 10 nm-thick Ti layer, respectively. The rms roughness of the (f) and (g) was approximately 0.17 ± 0.02 nm and 0.21 ± 0.03 nm, respectively.
