Utilizing inherent electrochemical signals generated by metal catalysts (Ni and Cu).
Detecting fractures or discontinuities in the graphene film through these electrochemical signals.
Applying the method directly after the CVD process without requiring graphene transfer.

Main Results:

Demonstration of a simple and rapid methodology for probing graphene quality over large substrate areas.
Successful application of the electrochemical method to both Ni and Cu substrates.
Validation of the technique's ability to identify defects in graphene films.

Conclusions:

The developed electrochemical method offers a powerful tool for quality assessment in large-scale graphene fabrication by CVD.
This technique enables immediate post-growth monitoring, streamlining the production of high-quality graphene films.
