The intrinsic properties of graphene and the resulting device performance are hindered by the impurities produced during the synthesis process. Here, the authors elucidate the origin of contaminations in CVD-grown graphene and devise a strategy towards the scalable production of ultra-clean graphene with >99% clean regions and low contact resistance.
