چکیده

A controllable optical anisotropy in CVD graphene is shown. The transparency in the visible range of pre-strained CVD graphene exhibits a periodic modulation as a function of polarization direction. The strain sensitivity of the optical response of graphene demonstrated here can be effectively utilized towards novel ultra-thin optical devices and strain sensing applications.

Control of thickness uniformity and grain size in graphene films for transparent conductive electrodes.

Large-scale and transferable graphene films grown on metal substrates by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) still hold great promise for future nanotechnology. To realize the promise, one of the key issues is to further improve the quality of graphene, e.g., uniform thickness, large grain size, and low defects. Here we grow graphene films on Cu foils by CVD at ambient pressure, and study the grap...

Spatially resolved mapping of electrical conductivity across individual domain (grain) boundaries in graphene.

All large-scale graphene films contain extended topological defects dividing graphene into domains or grains. Here, we spatially map electronic transport near specific domain and grain boundaries in both epitaxial graphene grown on SiC and CVD graphene on Cu subsequently transferred to a SiO2 substrate, with one-to-one correspondence to boundary structures. Boundaries coinciding with the substr...
