Description

Graphene thin film manufactured by the electrospray method and a manufacturing method thereof {THIN FILM GRAPHENE MANUFACTURED BY ELECTRO SPRAY DEPOSITION AND PREPARATION METHOD THEREOF}

The present invention relates to a graphene thin film prepared by an electrospray method and a method for manufacturing the same, and more particularly, to a graphene thin film having excellent uniformity by electrospraying a solution in which the graphene is dispersed onto a substrate using an electrospray apparatus. It relates to a method that can be produced in a large area and a graphene thin film prepared accordingly.

Recent explosive research on graphene has led to a surge in the general scientific community's interest in graphene.

Created by Andre Gaim at the University of Manchester in 2004, graphene is a two-dimensional carbon structure with a thickness of one atom, and is emerging as the next generation of promising nanomaterials.

The unique physical properties of graphene show that electrons in graphene behave like relativistic particles without static mass and move at about 1 million meters per second, resulting in electron transfer speeds more than 100 times that of silicon, and 100 times stronger than steel. It is transparent enough to pass 98% of light, and the graphene surface is expected to be applicable to various fields by inducing specific binding with various organic / bio materials by π-π stacking.

For such graphene applications, a uniform large area graphene film is required. However, the most widely used method of producing graphene is to peel off the graphite crystals one by one using scotch tape to reach the last layer, a single layer, and make a few pieces of these single layer graphene. However, this approach is difficult to mass produce and small in size, making it difficult to apply to commercial applications. For this reason, many researchers are conducting research to produce large-area graphene, and various synthetic methods have recently been announced through Sungkyunkwan University, Rutgers University, and MIT.

The prior art for producing graphene is as follows.

First, as described above, a method of mechanically peeling high-quality graphite using a scotch tape or the like, which cannot synthesize high-quality graphene in large quantities, and has a problem that its size is limited to several μm? Mm. .

Secondly, a method of manufacturing a graphene film using selective sublimation of Si from a SiC wafer, more specifically, carbon adsorbed or contained in a crystal such as SiC at high temperature grows to graphene along the surface of the grain. That's how. When epitaxial synthesis is used, large area graphene can be patterned, but there is a problem in that it is an expensive process.

Third, a method for preparing graphene using chemical vapor deposition, more specifically, first depositing a catalyst layer such as nickel / copper and reacting with a mixture of methane and hydrogen at a high temperature to allow carbon to be adsorbed and then cooled. Graphene is manufactured by crystallizing carbon adsorbed through the process. Graphene manufacturing method using the above-described chemical vapor deposition method has the advantage that can be prepared a large area graphene and the graphene layer number can be adjusted according to the reaction conditions, there is a difficulty in controlling the uniform crystal surface.

In addition, Korean Patent Publication No. 2010-0121978 discloses a method of preparing a graphene thin film by preparing and dispersing a graphene dispersion by air spray deposition, but in the case of a pneumatic spray deposition method, coating is performed when the air pressure is not constant. The uniformity of is considerably inferior and it is difficult to obtain a uniform coating surface without the movement of the substrate or the nozzle. In particular, when the metal base material is used as a substrate, the adhesion to the substrate is reduced without the addition of a dispersant, and the coating surface may be easily dropped with only a slight physical force on the outside. In addition, organic solvents such as dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, and dimethyl sulfoxide are harmful to humans and may cause environmental pollution.
