Abstract

There is provided a method for preparing a graphene film for pellicle, and also a method for making a pellicle using such graphene film: wherein a film-like graphene deposited on a base material is coated with a protective film, from which the base material is chemically removed by an etching liquid and then the protective film is chemically removed by a solvent whose surFace tension is lower than that of the etching liquid; the pellicle frame may be attached to the film-like graphene before the protective film is completely removed or thereafter.

Claims (4)

1. A method for manufacturing a graphene film characterized by including steps of:

(i) preparing a film-like graphene provided on a base material; (ii) coating said graphene with a protective film; (iii) removing said base material by wet etching with an etching liquid; (iv) and dissolving the protective film using a solvent whose surface tension is lower than that of said wet etching liquid.

2. The method for manufacturing a graphene film as claimed in claim 1 wherein said protective film is a fluororesin, and said solvent is a fluorine-based solvent.

3. A method for manufacturing a pellicle characterized by using a film-like graphene which is manufactured through steps including: (i) preparing a film-like graphene provided on a base material; (ii) coating said graphene with a protective film; (iii) removing said base material by wet etching with an etching liquid; (iv) dissolving the protective film using a solvent whose surface tension is lower than that of said wet etching liquid.
