The development of functional hybrid nanomaterials based on graphene and metal nanostructures is currently the subject of intense research interest. In this study we discuss different aspects relevant to growth morphology, properties (optical, electrical, and structural), as well as the nanoscale architecture of hybrid graphene-nanometallic structures based on graphene as a multifunctional platform. The peculiarities of growth kinetics of thin gold and copper films on graphene are analysed (by use of the variety of experimental methods) and compared. It is shown that the presence of graphene affects strongly the optical, electrical, and structural properties of thin metal films.
