Graphene as transparent electrode material for organic electronics.
Graphene, a two dimensional atomically thick carbon atom arranged in a honeycomb lattice, was recently isolated by repeatedly peeling highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) using sticky tape. 1 Since then, outstanding physical properties predicted and measured for graphene have been explored for practical applications such as fi eld effect transistors, 1 4 chemical sensors 5 7 and composite reinforcement. 8 10 Monolayer graphene possesses high crystallographic quality and ballistic electron transport on the micrometer scale with only 2.3% of light absorption. 11 12 Moreover, the combination of its high chemical and thermal stability, 13 14 high stretchability, 15 17
