采用氧化石墨和七水合硫酸锌作为初始反应物,在低温下(80℃)合成了氧化石墨/ZnO,然后通过低温剥离法制备了高质量石墨烯/ZnO(GNS/ZnO)复合材料.采用X射线衍射(XRD)、傅里叶变换红外(FTIR)光谱、热重分析仪(TG)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、拉曼光谱(RS)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)和透射电子显微镜(TEM)等分析手段对石墨烯/ZnO样品进行了表征.结果表明:氧化石墨还原彻底,纳米ZnO成功地负载到了石墨烯上,有效地减少了石墨烯片层间的团聚现象.通过对ZnO和石墨烯/ZnO荧光性能测试,结果表明:石墨烯/ZnO发生了荧光淬灭现象,在光电子领域拥有广阔的应用前景.
Graphite oxide/ZnO was prepared at low temperature(80℃) with graphite oxide(GO) and zinc sulfate heptahydrate(ZnSO4.7H2O) as initial reactants.The graphene/ZnO(GNS/ZnO) was then prepared by a low-temperature chemical exfoliation method.The as-prepared GNS/ZnO was characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD),Fourier transform infrared spectroscope(FT-IR),thermo-gravimetric analysis(TG),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),Raman spectra(RS),scanning electron microscope(SEM) and transmission electron microscope(TEM),respectively.The results indicate that GO is completely reduced to graphene and the well-dispersed ZnO nanoparticles are successfully deposited on graphene sheets as spacers to keep the neighboring sheets separate.Photoluminescence spectra of ZnO and GNS/ZnO nanocomposites display the fluorescence quenching property of GNS/ZnO,implying that the GNS/ZnO nanocomposites are expected for practical use in the field of photoelectronics.
