Preparation of Few-Layer Graphene by Pulsed Discharge in Graphite Micro-Flake Suspension

Abstract: Few-layer graphene nanosheets were produced by pulsed discharge in graphite micro-flake suspension at room temperature. In this study, the discharging current and voltage data were recorded for the analysis of the pulsed discharge processes. The as-prepared samples were recovered and characterized by various techniques, such as TEM, SEM, Raman, XRD, XPS, FT-IR, etc. The presence of few-layer graphene (3–9 L) in micrometer scale was confirmed. In addition, it is investigated that the size of recovered graphene … Show more

“…Furthermore, after the shockwave propagates into BP powder, it reflects at the interface of BP and air, leading to a rarefaction wave. The reflected rarefaction wave induces tense stress 61,62 in the BP particles to exfoliate the black phosphorous layers to form BP nanosheets, which is similar to the shock exfoliation effect on graphitic layers. Thus, the formed BP ultrafine powders are fragmented induced by collision effect, and exfoliated by tensile effect and shear effect to form BP nanosheets.…”

“…In nanosecond pulsed Nd:YAG laser ablation, the thermal wave has enough time to propagate into the target material and ablate it. In the graphite target (step 1), there is an induced vibration of graphite layers due to mismatch between the acoustic impedances of graphite and EG which causes tensile stress between graphitic layers 20 . For vibration effects that overcome the weak Van der Waals force between graphitic layers, graphite is exfoliated into few-layer graphene sheets (GNs) which are dispersed in EG 20 22 .…”

In step 2, the graphite target at the bottom of a glass-beaker now filled with GNs/EG liquid was replaced by a 1 mm thick gold target with 5 mm diameter.…”
