Abstract Integrating two-dimensional (2D) materials into semiconductor manufacturing lines is essential to exploit their material properties in a wide range of application areas. However, current approaches are not compatible with high-volume on wafer level. Here, we report generic methodology for large-area integration 2D by adhesive bonding.
