Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing graphene and a graphene device by epitaxy of a pretreated SiC substrate. The method comprises the following steps: performing hydrogen etching on the SiC substrate and then performing oxidation treatment on the SiC substrate after hydrogen etching at a temperature of 800-1300 DEG C for the treatment time of 15-120min; and then rising the temperatureto 1450-1700 DEG C in an inert atmosphere on the pretreated SiC substrate for graphene growth. The SiC surface is passivated through oxidation pretreatment so that nucleation density of the graphene epitaxially grown on the SiC substrate is reduced, the graphene material with larger size and better performance is obtained, and the SiC epitaxial graphene wafer is subjected to deposition, photolithography, doping and integration procedures accordingly so as to prepare the corresponding graphene device.
