Automated processing and transfer of two-dimensional materials with robotics

Robust, high-throughput processing of two-dimensional materials produced by chemical vapor deposition requires a reliable and scalable technique to transfer the materials to a target substrate. An automated system for transferring chemical-vapor-deposited two-dimensional materials using robotics is developed, demonstrating high production capability with uniformity and repeatability of the transferred materials.
