Keywords:Hexagonalboronnitride;Nanosheets;Graphene;vanderWaalsepitaxy;ChemicalvapordepositionBackgroundGraphenehasattractedglobalresearchinterestsacrossawiderangeofapplications[1,2].
However,grapheneishighlysensitivetoextraneousenvironmentalinfluences.
Thus,itwasdeemedworthwhiletodepositprotectivelayersovergraphenewithoutimpairingitsproperties.
Hexagonalboronnitride(h-BN),awell-knowndielectricmaterial,mayaffordthenecessaryprotectionforgraphene[3,4].
Asananalogueofgraphene,h-BNshowsaminimallat-ticemismatchwithgrapheneofabout1.

Hence,h-BNprovestobeapromisingdielectricmaterial,orsubstrate,fortwo-dimensionalelectronicdevicesandespeciallyforthosebasedupontheuseofgraphene[9-13].
Graphene,partiallycoveredbyh-BNprotectivelayers,maydisplaypromisingelectroniccharacteristicsofgraphenewithmuchlowerenvironmentalsensitivity.
Recently,chemicalvapordeposition(CVD)synthesisofh-BNonNi[14-16]orCu[13,17-19]substrateshasbeenfurtherinvestigated.

Nevertheless,thetransferprocessbringsinevitablecontam-inationorevendestruction,anditisdifficulttodeterminethepositionandthecoverageratioofh-BNongraphene.
Consideringthisproblem,wepayattentiontothecatalyst-freeCVDgrowthofh-BNongraphene,whichpromisesdirectapplicationingrapheneelectronicdevicesandmayobviatetheneedforatransferprocess.
