Nanotechnology is the understanding and manipulation of matter at the atomic and molecular level, where unique phenomena enable novel applications. Recent advancements on graphene, the well-known nano-material with extreme thinness, high electrical conductivity, high thermal conductivity, high mechanical strength and extreme-large specific surface area of materials, holds promising for broad potential applications. However, their mass production process, defect inspections, and quality control techniques and quality management standards have yet to be reached. Often the top-down manufacturing approach, involving cutting and shaping large materials to contain smaller identical features, face severe difficulty in reproducibility; while the bottom-up approach, involving piecing together small units into a larger area/size of product, face serve difficulty in defect predictability. In this paper we survey key quality matrix and measurement techniques for different applications, and how we possibly extend the results to a standard quality management framework. We describe how we characterize and measure the key product features for enabling effective mass production and quality control of graphenebased thermal films as an illustrated example.
