Catalyst-free approach for growth of graphene sheets on
high-density silica nanowires byCVD
روش بدون کاتالیزور برای رشد ورقه های گرافن روی نانوسیم های سیلیکا
با دانسیته بالا توسط CVD
ABSTRACT
A novel “two-step annealing” method is proposed for the direct synthesis of graphene sheets on high-density dielectric silica nanowires without using metal catalysts. During the first annealing at 1000 °C, the extremely thin SiO2 layer on Si substrate shrinks and forms dense nanoparticles. Using these silica nanoparticles as templates, graphene sheets and silica nanowires are synthesized simultaneously after the second annealing process at 800–850 °C. The experiment results suggest that the graphene sheets grow along the nanowires and its crystalline quality and domain size are determined by the temperature and duration of the second annealing process.
Production, properties and potential of graphene

ABSTRACT
This review on graphene, a one-atom thick, two-dimensional sheet of carbon atoms, starts with a general description of the graphene electronic structure as well as a basic experimental toolkit for identifying and handling this material. Owing to the versatility of graphene properties and projected applications, several production techniques are summarized, ranging from the mechanical exfoliation of high-quality graphene to the direct growth on carbides or metal substrates and from the chemical routes using graphene oxide to the newly developed approach at the molecular level. The most promising and appealing properties of graphene are summarized from an exponentially growing literature, with a particular attention to matching production methods to characteristics and to applications. In particular, we report on the high carrier mobility value in suspended and annealed samples for electronic devices, on the thickness-dependent optical transparency and, in the mechanical section, on the high robustness and full integration of graphene in sensing device applications. Finally, we emphasize on the high potential of graphene not only as a post-silicon materials for CMOS device application but more ambitiously as a platform for post-CMOS molecular architecture in electronic information processing.

ABSTRACT
We report an experimental comparative study of graphene layers produced by micromechanical cleavage of bulk graphite materials of different origins and graphite films obtained by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). Structural characteristics of these materials were evaluated using Raman spectroscopy and electron microscopy. Field effect transistors (FETs) based on the PECVD graphene were produced using electron beam lithography. Conductivity, carrier mobility and other characteristics of the PECVD graphene obtained from Raman and FET tests were similar to the properties of graphene flakes obtained from bulk graphite materials. Taking into account the scalability of the CVD fabrication, these results confirm the possible industrial use of graphene films obtained by this method.
