Graphene has recently been attracting considerable interest because of its exceptional conductivity, mechanical strength, thermal stability, etc. Graphene-based devices exhibit high potential for applications in electronics, optoelectronics, and energy harvesting. In this paper, we review various growth strategies including metal-catalyzed transfer-free growth and direct-growth of graphene on flexible and rigid insulating substrates which are "major issues" for avoiding the complicated transfer processes that cause graphene defects, residues, tears and performance degradation in graphene-based functional devices. Recent advances in practical applications based on "direct-grown graphene" are discussed. Finally, several important directions, challenges and perspectives in the commercialization of 'direct growth of graphene' are also discussed and addressed.
石墨烯因其出色的导电性、机械强度、热稳定性等特点，最近引起了相当大的关注。基于石墨烯的器件在电子学、光电学和能量收集等领域具有很高的应用潜力。在本文中，我们综述了各种生长策略，包括无金属催化剂转移生长和在柔性和刚性绝缘衬底上直接生长石墨烯，这是避免导致石墨烯基功能器件中石墨烯缺陷、残留物、撕裂和性能下降的复杂转移过程的“主要问题”。讨论了基于“直接生长石墨烯”的实际应用的最新进展。最后，还讨论和解决了“直接生长石墨烯”商业化的几个重要方向、挑战和前景。
