Enhanced transparent conductive properties of graphene/carbon nano-composite films

Transparent conductive graphene/carbon nano-composite films are produced based on graphene oxide (GO) sheets and phenolic resins that are layer-by-layer deposited on a quartz substrate using a spin coating technique. The graphene/carbon nano-composite films with high graphitization degree and high crystallization exhibit exceptionally high electrical conductivity and transparency after thermal reduction. A remarkable sheet resistance of 1.98 kΩ/□ at 81.3% transparency in the wavelength of 550 nm is obtained, which significantly outperforms that (3.29 kΩ/ □ at 81.7% transparency) of the film produced from pure GO sheets after thermal reduction.
