Graphene

Introduction

Graphene is a two-dimensional carbon allotrope. It is composed of carbon atoms positioned in a hexagonal design, which can be said to resemble a chicken wire. Graphene is one of the first and most famous examples of a 2D crystal.

In graphene, each carbon atom is connected as coarse to the other three carbon atoms.

Graphene is considered to be the world's thinnest, strongest and most conductive material - to both electricity and heat.

Characterisation and resistivity of graphene ; good conductivity is the excellent property of graphene.

CRYSTAL SYSTEM OF GRAPHENE

CRYSTAL SYSTEM OF GRAPHENE

Graphene is the carbon allotrop of a crystal with 2D properties. Carbon atoms are densely packaged in the form of a regular hexagonal. Each atom has four ties, each with three neighbors, a vineyard and a π bond directed from the plane. The atoms are among the approximately 1.42 ångströms.

Sp2 has hybridization. Bond-ties hybridize together to form π-bands and π-bands. These tapes are responsible for most of the important electronic features of graphene through the semi-filled tape that allows free-moving electrons.

CRYSTAL SYSTEM OF GRAPHENE

In graphene, each carbon atom is connected as coarse to the other three carbon atoms. Thanks to the strength of the coarcy bonds between carbon atoms, graphene has a great stability and a very high strain strength.

In addition, carbon atoms are connected to only three atoms, even though they have the ability to connect to a fourth atom. This feature can be attractive for use in composite materials, combined with the above mentioned strain strength and high surface area/graphene ratio

Graphene as the basis of other carbon structures Graphene, carbon nanotubes and buckyballs can be a main form for many carbon structures.

IMPORTANT POINTS IN GRAPHENE STRUCTURE 

  • SP2 Hybridization
  • 0.142 Nm long carbon bonds
  • Strenght
  • Elastic properties of graphene

  • Graphite, a 3D crystal made of weakly connected graphene layers, is a relatively common material used in pen tips, batteries and more.
  • Carbon atoms in each layer are arranged in a honeycomb mesh with a separation of 0.142 nm, and the distance between the planes is 0.335 nm.

Carbon Nanotubes

Carbon nanotubes are cylindrical molecules consisting of collected layers of single-layer carbon atoms (graphene). Carbon Nanotube is allotrop of the carbon element. Carbon Nanotubes are thought to be a curved layer of graphene.

Carbon Nanotubes

Carbon Nanotubes

They can be single-walled (SWCNT) or multi-walled (MWCNT) with a diameter smaller than 1 nanometer (nm). Their length can reach a few micrometers or even millimeters.

There are 3 different carbon nanotube configurations.These are ;

FULLERENE

The Fulleren structure is also known as large carbon cages. The most common known are C60, C70 forms. These forms are given functional features with additions to tail or different formatted connections

Structure and Properties of Graphene

Theoretically, graphene is not a new object. However, before the discovery of graphene, these was always a debate over whether carbon could exist in a two-dimensional (2D) form. In fact, it was commonly recognized that no standalone 2D crystal is stable under certain temperatures in which layers or macromolecules of such material would not be able to grow in a crystalline structure according to theoretic predictions. Therefore, it is quite strange that graphene appears frequently in our daily life but no one ever found it until 2004.

Structural Characterizations of Graphene

Structural Characterizations of Graphene

The excellent performances of graphene are derived from its unique 2D crystal structure. The horizontal dimension of graphene can be sufficiently extended, while the thickness is only in the atomic scale. Thus, the structural characterizations of graphene need to take into account the horizontal macroscopic scale as well as atomic level analysis. In this chapter, several typical structural characterization techniques, including optical microscopy, electron microscopy, scanning probe microscope, and raman spectroscopy are introduced.

Structural Characterizations of Graphene

Quantitative estimates of aromatic stabilization and limiting size derived from the enthalpies of hydrogenation (ΔHhydro) agree well with the literature reports.

Graphene sheets in solid form usually show evidence in diffraction for graphite's (002) layering. This is true of some single-walled nanostructures

Unit Cell

A unit cell of graphene is just the 'surface' area of 2 carbon atoms.

This area is 0,052 nm2, which gives us a density of 0,77 mg/m2.

Same principle for all monolayer materials.

Unit Cell

Primitive cell of graphene

A primitive cell is a minimum volume cell (a unit cell) corresponding to a single lattice point of a structure with discrete translational symmetry.

The unit cell for graphene is a two-dimensional rhombus. The result is that two atoms are contained per unit cell. The upper right structure actually appearing in graphite, stacked layers of graphene.
