Abstract

A metal-doped graphene and a growth method of the same are provided. The metal-doped graphene includes graphene and metal elements, wherein the metal elements accounts for 1-30 at % based on the total content of the metal-doped graphene. The growth method includes performing a PECVD by using a carbon precursor, a metal precursor, and a group VI precursor in order to grow the metal-doped graphene.
