Abstract
A facile method to synthesize rGO using a microwave-assisted method under N2-atmosphere conditions is reported.
Highlights
Carbon-based materials are extensively used in technological development, chemical industries, marine and railroad transportation, etc.[1,2] Interest in the eld of nanoscience and nanofabrication research is increasing rapidly
Synthesis of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) prepared by microwave-assisted method under normal and N2-atmosphere conditions was successfully performed
The structures and morphologies of the rGO synthesized by hydrazine hydrate and L-ascorbic acid (L-AA) were con rmed by ATR-FTIR, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX) results
Summary
Carbon-based materials are extensively used in technological development, chemical industries, marine and railroad transportation, etc.[1,2] Interest in the eld of nanoscience and nanofabrication research is increasing rapidly This is shown by the vast use of carbon-based nanostructured materials, which include carbon nanotubes,[2,3] fullerenes,[2,3] nanodiamonds,[3] graphene quantum dots,[4] reduced graphene oxide (rGO),[5] carbon dots,[6] and boron carbon oxynitride (BCNO) phosphor materials.[7] These carbon-based nanostructured materials are exciting research subjects due to their excellent mechanical strength, electrical and thermal conductivity, optical properties, low toxicity, tunable color emission, and chemical inertness.[2,8,9] They offer high potential for various applications, such as drug aDepartment of Physics, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Institut Teknologi Bandung, Jl.
