Introduction -- The Properties of Vertically-oriented Graphene -- PECVD Synthesis of Vertically-oriented Graphene: Mechanism and Plasma Sources -- PECVD Synthesis of Vertically-oriented Graphene: Precursor and Temperature Effects -- Atmospheric PECVD Growth of Vertically-oriented Graphene -- Vertically-oriented Graphene for Sensing and Environmental Applications -- Vertically-oriented Graphene for Supercapacitors -- Vertically-oriented Graphene for Other Energy Storage and Conversion Applications -- Conclusions and outlook.
This book introduces the basic concepts, synthesis techniques, and applications of vertically-oriented graphene. The authors detail emerging applications of vertically-oriented graphene such as field emitters, atmospheric nanoscale corona discharges, gas sensors and biosensors, supercapacitors, lithium-ion batteries, fuel cells (catalyst supports) and electrochemical transducers. They offer a perspective on current challenges to enabling commercial applications of vertically-oriented graphene.
