Characterization of FeCl3 Intercalation Doped CVD Few-Layer Graphene
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intercalation doping has been theoretically and experimentally studied on chemical vapor deposition synthesized few-layer graphene. Density functional theory calculations identified FeCl3 as a good dopant to reduce the sheet resistance of few-layer graphene. A simple vapor transfer method is employed to dope graphene. The successful doping is confirmed by the Raman spectra as well as the electrical measurements. After doping, graphene shows p-type conducting behavior and its conductance is significantly enhanced compared with that of undoped graphene. Three-layer graphene exhibited a sheet resistance of 40 / , while four-layer doped graphene has even smaller sheet resistance of 20 / , with transmittance ≥90% for both cases, which provide the best combination of sheet resistance and transmittance among all previously reported transparent conductors.

Intercalation of few-layer graphite flakes with FeCl3: Raman determination of Fermi level, layer by layer decoupling, and stability.
We use anhydrous ferric chloride (FeCl(3)) to intercalate graphite flakes consisting of 2-4 graphene layers and to dope graphene monolayers. The intercalant, staging, stability, and doping of the resulting intercalation compounds (ICs) are characterized by Raman scattering. The G peak of heavily doped monolayer graphene upshifts to ∼1627 cm(-1). The 2-4 layer ICs have similar upshifts, and a Lo...

We demonstrate a controlled growth of nitrogen-doped graphene layers by liquid precursor based chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique. Nitrogen-doped graphene was grown directly on Cu current collectors and studied for its reversible Li-ion intercalation properties. Reversible discharge capacity of N-doped graphene is almost double compared to pristine graphene due to the large number of sur...

متن کاملIs graphene a good transparent electrode for photovoltaics and display applications?
The current standard material used for transparent electrodes in displays, touch screens and solar cells is indium tin oxide (ITO) which has low sheet resistance (10 Ω/□), high optical transmission in the visible wavelength (85%) and does not suffer of optical haze. However, ITO is mechanically rigid and incompatible with future demands for flexible applications. Graphene materials share many o...
