Graphene Nanoparticles Applications for Electronic Properties and Devices

Graphene, which is a two-dimensional carbon allotrope, is as a sophisticated material. Graphene nanoparticles have amazing properties as the lightest and strongest material, compared with its ability to conduct heat and electricity better than anything else, mean that it can be integrated into a huge number of applications. So it means that in order to improve the performance of current materials Graphene nanoparticles can be used.
As we mentioned before, Graphene shows extraordinary properties. One particular area that Graphene nanoparticles can be used is electronic devices. By using Graphene we can produce touchscreens and liquid crystal displays (LCD), within the field of electronics. Graphene is an almost completely transparent material, it is able to transmit up to 97.7% of light optically, while also eliciting its highly conductive properties, which is an ideal feature in certain electronics.
For example Graphene nanoparticles can be used in near field communication (NFC) devices. Scientists developed this product by replacing classical, all-metal antennas with new ones composed solely of Graphene which means carbon atoms.
Graphene has a high carrier mobility, and low noise, allowing it to be used as the channel in a field-effect transistor. Unmodified graphene does not have an energy band gap, making it unsuitable for digital electronics. However, modifications have created potential uses in various areas of electronics.
Graphene nanoparticles can be used in different areas and applications. For instance some researchers used a printing process to deposit graphene on paper. The ink was able to conduct electricity.

Carbon Nanotube Threads

Since its discovery, carbon nanotube (CNT) has attracted many interests in different technology fields due to its extraordinary properties. Properties such as, high strength, great electrical and thermal conductivity, light weight and flexibility made CNT one of the best materials for wide range of applications. However, from its name it can be understood that CNT is a nanoscale material which is very small to be applied for the production of daily products. Researchers all around the world are working on finding methods and techniques which could produce new materials with the extraordinary properties of CNT. Image retrieved from:  https://worldindustrialreporter.com/strong-light-flexible-carbon-nanotubes-threads-with-ultrahigh-conductivity/ One of these research is focusing on the production of high strength threads that can be used in the manufacturing of fabrics, cables and ropes. An international group of scientists were able to produce a flexible conductive thread th...

Multi Walled Carbon Nanotube Dispersions

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)  have attracted enormous attention in recent years due to its unique physical, electronic, optical and potential applications in materials science and nanotechnology. The van der Waals interaction between tubes, however, makes CNTs aggregate in most organic solvents and aqueous solutions, which is the major limitation of their practical applications.Various approaches have been studied to alter the CNT surface to promote the dispersion of individual nanotubes and prevent their reaggregation. On the basis of this widely accepted viewpoint, numerous techniques such as covalent bonding, surfactant coating and polymer wrapping have been developed for surface modification or sidewall functionalization.These methods, however, are complicated, time-consuming and cause permanent damage to the CNT structure and properties of the surface, which produces residues of the dispersion agent for the final product.
