Figure 4. Two typical distributions of grain size.
The polycrystalline graphene with the narrowed grain size distribution is generated from the Voronoi construction, while the polycrystalline graphene with the broad grain size distribution is generated from a continuous nucleation and growth construction that forms a Johnson-Mehl microstructure. For these two grain size distributions, the number of grain and the dimensions of the polycrystalline graphene sheet are maintained to be similar. As a result, the average grain size <d> and the number of GB junctions for both grain size distributions are also the same.
