There is provided a method for providing a coated
graphene layer structure (410) on a
silicon-containing
wafer (435), the method comprising: (1) providing a
wafer stack (420) comprising, in order, a transparent substrate (400), a
nitride layer (405), a
graphene layer structure (410), and a
dielectric passivation layer (415) wherein the
dielectric passivation layer (415) has an exposed upper surface; (2) forming or adhering (300) a further layer (435) onto the exposed upper surface of the
dielectric passivation layer (415); and (3) removing the substrate (400) by
laser lift-off 305 to
expose a surface of the
nitride layer (405) remote from the
graphene layer structure (410); wherein the
nitride layer (405) of the
wafer stack (420) comprises a first surface directly adjacent to the substrate (400) and a second surface directly adjacent to the graphene layer structure (410), and wherein the first surface and the second surface are each independently formed of aluminum nitride or
boron nitride; and wherein: the method further comprises
wafer bonding (130, Fig. 2) the exposed surface of the nitride layer to the surface (235b ', Fig. 2) of the
silicon-containing wafer (235, Fig. 2) after the step (125, Fig. 2) of removing the substrate (225, Fig. 2); or the step of forming or adhering includes
wafer bonding (300), and the further layer is a
silicon-containing wafer (435). The laminate (440) is suitable for manufacturing an electronic device (460).
