Fabrication and Characterization of Graphene Electrodes for Electrochemistry Experiments

چکیده
The goal of our project is to pattern well-defined electrodes from single-layer graphene for use in electrochemistry investigations. We have fabricated devices using both mechanically exfoliated graphene and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) graphene. Preliminary experimental data show that the graphene is chemically clean, based on measurements that the effective area of the electrodes determined by cyclic voltammetry agrees with the geometrical area. We are using these electrodes to investigate the interactions between graphene and adsorbed molecules. Fabrication and Characterization of Graphene Electrodes for Electrochemistry Experiments

FABRICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF POLYANILINE-GRAPHENE COMPOSITE AS ELECTRODE IN ELECTROCHEMICAL CAPACITOR
In this study, polyaniline-graphene composites with different nano-structures are synthesized and the behaviour of the obtained composites serving as electrode materials in electrochemical capacitors is studied. The morphology, crystal structure, and thermal stability of the composites are examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Thermal gravimetric analys...
متن کاملElectrochemistry of individual monolayer graphene sheets.
We report on the fabrication and measurement of devices designed to study the electrochemical behavior of individual monolayer graphene sheets as electrodes. We have examined both mechanically exfoliated and chemical vapor deposited (CVD) graphene. The effective device areas, determined from cyclic voltammetric measurements, show good agreement with the geometric area of the graphene sheets, in...
متن کاملExploring the electrochemical performance of graphitic paste electrodes: graphene vs. graphite.
We report the fabrication, characterisation (SEM, TEM, XPS and Raman spectroscopy) and electrochemical implementation of a graphene paste electrode. The paste electrodes utilised are constructed by simply mixing graphene with mineral oil (which acts as a binder) prior to loading the resultant paste into a piston-driven polymeric-tubing electrode-shell, where this electrode configuration allows ...
متن کاملElectroanalysis with Carbon Film-based Electrodes
As electrode materials for analytical applications, carbon-based electrodes have been widely employed as detectors for high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), capillary electrophoresis (CE) and various biosensors. Carbon materials usually shows wider potential window compared with those of novel metals such as platinum and gold electrode. These electrodes are chemically stable, highly co...
متن کاملElectrodeposition of porous graphene networks on nickel foams as supercapacitor electrodes with high capacitance and remarkable cyclic stability
UNLABELLED We describe a facile, low-cost, and green method to fabricate porous graphene networks/nickel foam (PG/NF) electrodes by electrochemical deposition of graphene sheets on nickel foams (NFs) for the application of supercapacitor electrodes. The electrodeposition process was accomplished by electrochemical reduction of graphene oxide (GO) in its aqueous suspension. The resultant binder-...
