Percolation scaling in composites of exfoliated MoS 2 filled with nanotubes and graphene
(2012)Applications of films of exfoliated layered compounds in many areas will be limited by their relatively low electrical conductivity. To address this, we have prepared and characterised composites of a nano-conductor ... -
Plasma-assisted simultaneous reduction and nitrogen doping of graphene oxide nanosheets
(2013)An environmentally benign and scalable route for the production of gram scale quantities of nitrogen-doped graphene using a downstream microwave plasma source is reported. Simultaneous reduction and doping of graphene oxide ... -
Plasma-Assisted Simultaneous Reduction and Nitrogen Doping of Graphene Oxide Nanosheets
(2013)An environmentally benign and scalable route for the production of gram scale quantities of nitrogen-doped graphene using a downstream microwave plasma source is reported. Simultaneous reduction and doping of graphene oxide ... -
Production of Molybdenum Trioxide Nanosheets by Liquid Exfoliation and Their Application in High-Performance Supercapacitors
(2014)Here, we demonstrate a simple method to exfoliate layered molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) crystallites to give multilayer MoO3 nanosheets dispersed in solvents. Exfoliation is achieved by sonicating MoO3 powder in the presence ... -
Production of Ni(OH)<inf>2</inf> nanosheets by liquid phase exfoliation: From optical properties to electrochemical applications
(2016)Here we demonstrate that liquid phase exfoliation can be used to convert layered crystals of nickel hydroxide into Ni(OH)2 nanosheets in relatively large quantities and without the need for ion intercalation. While other ... -
Synthesis and Analysis of Thin Conducting Pyrolytic Carbon Films
(2012)We report on an adjustable process for chemical vapour deposition of thin films of pyrolytic carbon on inert substrates using an acetylene feedstock. Through modification of the reaction parameters control over film thickness ... -
Thin film pyrolytic carbon electrodes: A new class of carbon electrode for electroanalytical sensing applications
(2010)This communication describes the electrochemical properties of thin pyrolytic carbon (PyC) films created using a reliable, non-catalytic chemical vapour deposition (CVD) process. After deposition, the electron transfer ... -
Transition metal dichalcogenide growth via close proximity precursor supply
(2015)Reliable chemical vapour deposition (CVD) of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is currently a highly pressing research field, as numerous potential applications rely on the production of high quality films on a ...
