Synthesis of Reduced Graphene Oxide Films using Atmospheric Plasma and Furnace Annealing

Ayler R., Tong Y., Ramabadran U., Zhou X., Ryan G., Farhat S., Kettering University, US

Graphene oxide (GO) is an electrical insulator with good mechanical and thermal properties. It exhibits increased conductivity when the Carbon to Oxygen ratio is high. Our work aims to efficiently fabricate inexpensive flexible reduced graphene [...]

Characterisation of Native-State Soft Matter using ‘Multi-Mode’ Electron Microscopy

Stokes D.J., Baken E., Lich B.H., Hubert D.H.W., FEI Company, NL

Soft condensed matter and complex fluids are of increasing technological significance. It is therefore crucial that we extend the capabilities of conventional solid state imaging and analytical techniques to include the observation of materials such [...]
