Graphene Oxide as a Carbon Source for Controlled Growth of Carbon Nanowires

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 21 - Publication in refereed journalpeer-review

Abstract

A simple method for the controlled growth of novel reduced graphene oxide/carbon nanowire (rGO/CNW) composites is developed. Without any additional carbon precursor, the graphene oxide itself serves as the only carbon source. As a proof-of-concept, the chemical sensor based on the parallel rGO/CNW micropatterns is demonstrated, which exhibits the excellent detection of dopamine.
