Extraordinary linear dynamic range in laser-defined functionalized graphene photodetectors

Graphene-based photodetectors have demonstrated mechanical flexibility, large operating bandwidth, and broadband spectral response. However, their linear dynamic range (LDR) is limited by graphene's intrinsic hot-carrier dynamics, which causes deviation from a linear photoresponse at low incident powers. At the same time, multiplication of hot carriers causes the photoactive region to be smeare...

Laser Machining of Graphene

Since Geim and Novoselov’s successful production of high quality graphene, its unique properties have found a number of applications. But graphene is not an exotic chemical compound; instead, it is a sheet of graphite, one atom think. Before 2008, the only way to produce graphene was through successive pealing of graphite with scotch tape until graphite flakes as thin as 1 atomic layer were lef...

Magnetic Measurements of Graphene and Defected Graphene Generated by Laser Ablation Method

In this paper, the magnetic properties of carbon based material, graphene is studied, which is generated by laser ablation in cryogenic media. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and alternating gradient force magnetometer (AGFM) are applied to investigate the graphene morphology and magnetic properties, respectively. The graphene synthesized by the laser ablation method exhibits diamagnetic...

Laser Based Fabrication of Graphene

Graphene mode-locked ultrafast laser.

Graphene is at the center of a significant research effort. Near-ballistic transport at room temperature and high mobility make it a potential material for nanoelectronics. Its electronic and mechanical properties are also ideal for micro- and nanomechanical systems, thin-film transistors, and transparent and conductive composites and electrodes. Here we exploit the optoelectronic properties of...
