Easy graphene transfer using desktop laminator and PVA plastic foil

Graphene transfer is hard. But does it have to be? Abhay Shivayogimath from DTU Physics developed an incredibly simple method. All you need is a 200 USD desktop laminator and a roll of PVA foil, from amazon or ali baba... and you can transfer graphene with lower doping and higher mobility than both etching and bubbling transfer.

Corrections to the video: The laminator was from ebay - it cost 395 USD in 2016. On amazon, the model costs more than 600 USD today - like 500-900 USD. The PVA foil costs 60 USD when bought in 2016 - shipping was 28 USD from Alibaba. It's 60 cm x 10 meters long.
