Description

Graphene is a two-dimensional crystal of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice. It is a zero band gap semimetal with very unique electronic optical and mechanical properties which make it useful for many applications such as ultra-high-speed field-effect transistors, p-n junction diodes, terahertz oscillators, and low-noise electronic, NEMS and optical sensors. The high quality mass production of this nanomaterial is a big challenge, for this work we have used chemical method which helped to get this goal. Raman and FTIR vibrational spectroscopies were investigated to the examination of the production quality.
