▎ 摘　　要

Graphene has attracted much interest in recent years due to its unique and outstanding properties. Different routes to prepare graphene have been developed and achieved. Preparation methods of graphene used in recent years are intensively introduced, including micromechanical cleavage, chemical vapor deposition, liquid/gasphase-based exfoliation of graphite, epitaxial growth on an insulator, chemical reduction of exfoliated graphene oxide, etc. And their advantages and shortcomings are further discussed in detail. The preparations of graphene are also prospected.
