Beschreibung
Graphene is an attractive alternative material for diverse applications in electronic devices, fuel cells, biomedical sensors, energy storage, and super-capacitors due to its exceptional thermal,electrical, optical and mechanical properties. This material can be synthesized by many effective methods such as chemical vapor deposition,and micromechanical exfoliation of graphite. This book investigates a novel and clean approach to grow graphene directly from bulk graphite by Pulsed Laser Ablation in Liquid. This technique is simple, and fast;a one-step procedure to fabricate pure and stable graphene nanoparticles by short ablation time. It results in controllable-size products, high mass production, high stability, less aggregation, and absence of chemical agents,a known disadvantages observed in other approaches for graphene production. Confirming the presence of graphene is carried out by several characterization techniques including Raman spectroscopy, UV-VISIBLE, AFM, SEM,and TEM. These techniques allow an insight into the morphological and structural properties of the produced graphene. The potential recipe for growing high quality graphene is intensively explained in this book.
