Large single crystals of graphene ware made by using a solvent-catalyst of nickel metal. Both solid and liquidprocesses were experimented with graphene single crystals of mm demonstrated. The carbon source may be solidor gasses. For example, green house effected carbonaceous gasses could be used to strip carbon in forming largecrystals of graphite that would be a source for making precious graphene.
