Theoretical studies of epitaxial graphene formation on metal surfaces

In this thesis we develop a set of phenomenological models that we apply to the problem of epitaxial growth of graphene on metal substrates. The high temperature and typically low flux conditions under which graphene growth occurs are such that state of the art techniques such as kinetic Monte Carlo...
