▎ 摘　　要

NOVELTY - Formation of graphene or graphitic layer involves providing a three-dimensionally patterned carbonaceous portion, coating (50) the portion with a catalytic metal to form a coating having an inner surface proximal portion and an outer surface distal portion and annealing (60) the coated portion to form graphene or graphite layer on the outer surface of the catalytic metal coating. USE - Formation of graphene or graphitic layer (claimed). DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The drawing shows a flowchart for making graphene or graphitic carbon article. Photoresist deposition process (10) Patterning process (20) Coating of pattern with catalytic metal (50) Annealing process (60) Etching process (70)
