Flexible Large-Area Graphene Films of 50-600 nm Thickness with High Carrier Mobility.

ABSTRACT: Bulk graphene nanofilms feature fast electronic and phonon transport in combination with strong light-matter interaction and thus have great potential for versatile applications, spanning from photonic, electronic, and optoelectronic devices to charge-stripping and electromagnetic shielding, etc. However, large-area flexible close-stacked graphene nanofilms with a wide thickness range have yet to be reported. Here, we report a polyacrylonitrile-assisted 'substrate replacement' strategy to fabricate large-area free-standing graphene oxide/polyacrylonitrile nanofilms (lateral size ~ 20 cm). Linear polyacrylonitrile chains-derived nanochannels promote the escape of gases and enable macro-assembled graphene nanofilms (nMAGs) of 50-600 nm thickness following heat treatment at 3,000 °C.
