Abstract The conductivity of graphite oxide films is modulated using reducing agents. It found that the sheet resistance film reduced sodium borohydride (NaBH 4 ) much lower than hydrazine (N 2 H ). This attributed to formation CN groups in N case, which may act as donors compensating hole carriers oxide. In case NaBH reduction, interlayer distance first slightly expanded by intermediate boron complexes and then contracted gradual removal carbonyl hydroxyl along with complexes. fabricated...
Graphene is a distinct two-dimensional material that offers wide range of opportunities for membrane applications because ultimate thinness, flexibility, chemical stability, and mechanical strength. We demonstrate few- several-layered graphene oxide (GO) sheets can be engineered to exhibit the desired gas separation characteristics. Selective diffusion achieved by controlling flow channels pores via different stacking methods. For layered (3- 10-nanometer) GO membranes, tunable transport...

High temperature, short growth time, and an optimal gas mixing ratio (C2H2/H2 = 2/45) are found to be necessary synthesize highly crystalline grapheme, which may find applications in electronic devices. The wrinkles that observed under all conditions proposed formed by two processes.
As research on secondary batteries becomes important, interest in analytical methods to examine the condition of is also increasing. Among these methods, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) method one most attractive diagnostic techniques due its convenience, quickness, accuracy, and low cost. However, since obtained spectra are complicated signals representing several elements, it necessary understand whole environment for a meaningful analysis. Based understanding system, circuit...
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) has received a great deal of attention as substrate material for high-performance graphene electronics because it an atomically smooth surface, lattice constant similar to that graphene, large optical phonon modes, and electrical band gap.

One unique feature in parallel three-phase converters is a potential zero-sequence circulating current. To avoid the current, most present technology uses an isolation approach, such as transformers or separate power supplies. This paper proposes system where individual connect both AC and DC sides directly without additional passive components to reduce size cost of overall system. In this case, control current becomes important objective converter design. paper: (1) develops averaged model...

Supercapacitors with porous carbon structures have high energy storage capacity.
