Disclosed is an epitaxial substrate with a 2D material interposer on a surface of a polycrystalline substrate. The ultra-thin 2D material interposer is grown by van der Waals epitaxy. The lattice constant of a surface layer of the ultra-thin 2D material interposer and the coefficient of thermal expansion of the substrate base are highly fit with those of AlGaN or GaN. The ultra-thin 2D material interposer is of a single-layer structure or a composite-layer structure. An AlGaN or GaN single crystalline epitaxial layer is grown on the ultra-thin 2D material interposer by virtue of the van der Waals epitaxy. Therefore, the large-size substrate may be manufactured with far lower costs than related single crystal wafers.
