Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have demonstrated the potential to replace silicon and compound semiconductors that are conventionally used in photodetectors. These materials are ultrathin and have superior electrical and optoelectronic properties as well as mechanical flexibility. Consequently, they are particularly advantageous for fabricating high-performance photodetectors that can be used for wearable device applications and Internet of Things technology. Although prototype photodetectors based on single microflakes of 2D materials have demonstrated excellent photoresponsivity across the entire optical spectrum, their practical applications are limited due to the difficulties in scaling up the synthesis process while maintaining the optoelectronic performance. In this review, we discuss facile methods to mass-produce 2D material-based photodetectors based on the exfoliation of van der Waals crystals into nanosheet dispersions. We first introduce the liquid-phase exfoliation process, which has been widely investigated for the scalable fabrication of photodetectors. Solution processing techniques to assemble 2D nanosheets into thin films and the optoelectronic performance of the fabricated devices are also presented. We conclude by discussing the limitations associated with liquid-phase exfoliation and the recent advances made due to the development of the electrochemical exfoliation process with molecular intercalants.

Grapehen, a single atomic layer of graphite, has been in the spotlight and researched in vaious fields, because its fine mechanical, electrical properties, flexibility and transparence. Synthesis methods for large-area graphene such as chemical vaper deposition (CVD) and mechanical, chemical exfoliation have been reported. In particular, chemical exfoliation method receive attention due to low cost process. Chemical exfoliation method require reduction of graphene oxide in the process of exfoliation such as chemical reduction by strong reductant, thermal reduction on high temperature, and optical reduction via ultraviolet light exposure. Among these reduction methods, optical reduction is free from damage by strong reductant and high temperature. However, optical reduction is economically infeasible because the high cost of short-wavelength ultraviolet light sorce. In this paper, we make graphene-oxide and lanthanoid ion mixture aqueous solution which has highly optical absorbency in selective wevelength region. Sequentially, we synthesize reduced graphene oxide (RGO) using the solution and visible laser beam. Concretely, graphene oxide is made by modified hummer's method and mix with 1 ml each ultraviolet ray absorbent Gd3+ ion, Green laser absorbent Tb3+ ion, Red laser absorbent Eu3+ ion. After that, we revivify graphene oxide by laser exposure of 300 ~ 800 nm layser 1mW/cm2 +. We demonstrate reproducibility and repeatability of RGO through FT-IR, UV-VIS, Low temperature PL, SEM, XPS and electrical measurement.

Most of irradiated graphite that should be disposed comes from moderators and reflectors of nuclear power plants. The quantity of irradiated graphite could be higher in the future if high-temperature reactors (HTRs) will be deployed. In this case noteworthy quantities of fuel pebbles containing semi-graphitic carbonaceous material should be added to the already existing 250,000 tons of irradiated graphite. Industry graphite is largely used in industrial applications for its high thermal and electrical conductivity and thermal and chemical resistance, making it a valuable material. Irradiated graphite constitutes a waste management challenge owing to the presence of long-lived radionuclides, such as ¹⁴C and ³⁶Cl. In the ENEA Nuclear Material Characterization Laboratory it has been successfully designed a procedure based on the exfoliation process organic solvent assisted, with the purpose of investigate the possibility of achieving graphite significantly less toxic that could be recycled for other purpose [1]. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the possibility of the scalability from laboratory to industrial dimensions of the exfoliation process and provide the prototype of a chemical plant for the treatment of irradiated graphite.

본 논문은 층간 삽입 반응을 이용하여 그래핀을 박리하는 동시에 탄소나노튜브를 개별 분산시키고 이를 복합 필름으로 제조한 결과를 보고한다. 일반적으로 그래핀과 탄소나노튜브의 경우 흑연과 탄소나노튜브 번들로부터의 개별적 박리를 통해 제조될 수 있으나 장시간의 공정 시간을 요구하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 그래핀과 탄소나노튜브의 동시 박리 및 분산을 위해 흑연 및 탄소나노튜브 번들 내로 포타슘 소듐 타르트레이트를 삽입했으며 XRD 분석을 통해 흑연 층간 거리 및 탄소나노노튜브 번들 내 거리의 증가를 확인했다. 제조된 층간삽입화합물로부터 박리된 그래핀 및 탄소나노튜브의 경우 매우 낮은 산화도(< 8.3 at%)를 나타냈으며 제조된 물질을 여과 장치 및 스프레이 전사를 통해 복합 필름으로 제조한 결과 그래핀 및 탄소나노튜브의 단일 필름에 대비하여 복합 필름의 경우 전도성의 향상을 보였다.

As the fossil fuels are depleted nowadays, development of alternative energies is absolutely required in the world. Efficient production of hydrogen by water-splitting using solar energy can be one of the methods to solve the global energy and environmental problems. But this method has a problem of low conversion efficiency. The application of graphene can be one method to help increase the conversion efficiency. For this reason, mass production of high quality graphene is required. In this study, we prepared graphene using the chemical exfoliation method. We applied the Hummer's method and Tour's method to oxidize the graphite and could get the different Graphene Oxide(GO) from different process conditions. We also tried to convert the GO to graphene by thermal reduction and could remove functional group of GO effectively. The control of oxidation conditions was quite important to obtain the high quality graphene.

그래핀의 우수한 기계적, 전기적, 열적 성질은 최근 몇 년 동안 여러 연구 분야에서 지대한 관심을 불러일으켰다. 그래핀을 생산하는 대표적인 방법인 습식공정 중 액상박리(liquid-phase exfoliation, LPE)는 초음파 및 높은 전단응력을 이용하여 벌크흑연을 그래핀으로 박리하는 기술이다. 액상박리에 의해 생산된 그래핀 분산액은 그래핀 잉크로 전환되어 그 활용폭을 더 넓힐 수 있는 장점이 있지만 고품질의 그래핀을 생산하고 가격경쟁력을 확보해야 한다. 위 조건을 만족하기 위해서 그래핀을 효율적으로 박리할 수 있는 공정 확보와 더불어 상대적으로 가격이 저렴한 천연흑연 기반의 그래핀 분산액 및 잉크를 생산해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 합성흑연 보다 약 3배 정도 저렴하고 그 크기는7배 이상 큰 천연흑연을 흐름반응기 액상박리 공정을 이용하여 박리를 시도하고 공정의 최적화와 박리된 그래핀의 구조적, 전기적 특성을 분석하였다. 천연흑연 기반 그래핀의 전기적 특성을 분석하기 위해 잉크 정제화 공정을 거쳐 그래핀 잉크를 생산하고 인쇄 장비를 사용하여 그래핀 패턴을 제작하였다. 본 연구를 통해 보다 경제적인 그래핀 분산액 및 잉크를 생산하고 그래핀 인쇄 소자를 개발할 수 있는 방법을 제시할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Tungsten disulfide (WS₂) nanosheets have attracted considerable attention because of their unique optical and electrical properties. Several methods for fabrication of WS₂ nanosheets have been developed. However, methods for mass production of high-quality WS₂ nanosheets remain challenging. In this study, WS₂ nanosheets were fabricated using mechano-chemical ball milling based on the synergetic effects of chemical intercalation and mechanical exfoliation. The ball-milling time was set as a variable for the optimized fabricating process of WS₂ nanosheets. Under the optimized conditions, the WS₂ nanosheets had lateral sizes of 500-600 nm with either a monolayer or bilayer. They also exhibited high crystallinity in the 2H semiconducting phase. Thus, the proposed method can be applied to the exfoliation of other transition metal dichalcogenides using suitable chemical intercalants. It can also be used with high-performance WS₂-based photodiodes and transistors used in practical semiconductor applications.

Metal halide perovskite nanocrystals, due to their high absorption coefficient, high diffusion length, and photoluminescence quantum yield, have received significant attention in the fields of optoelectronic applications such as highly efficient photovoltaic cells and narrow-line-width light emitting diodes. Their energy band structure can be controlled via chemical exchange of the halide anion or monovalent cations in the perovskite nanocrystals. Recently, it has been demonstrated that chemical exfoliation of the halide perovskite crystal structure can be achieved by addition of organic ligands such as n-octylamine during the synthetic process. In this study, we systematically investigated the quantum confinement effect of methylammonium lead bromide (CH₃NH₃PbBr₃, MAPbBr₃) nanocrystals by precise control of the crystal thickness via chemical exfoliation using n-octylammonium bromide (OABr). We found that the crystalline thickness consistently decreases with increasing amounts of OABr, which has a larger ionic radius than that of CH₃NH₃⁺ ions. In particular, a significant quantum confinement effect is observed when the amounts of OABr are higher than 60 %, which exhibited a blue-shifted PL emission (~ 100 nm) as well as an increase of energy bandgap (~ 1.53 eV).

Chemically modified graphene has been great interest for the application of printed electronics using solution prossesable technique. Here, we demonstrate a large area graphene exfoliation method with fewer defects on the basal plane by application of shear stress in solution to obtain high quality reduced graphene oxide (RGO). Moreover, we introduce a novel route to preparing highly concentrated and conductive RGO in various solvents by monovalent cation-${\pi}$ interaction. Noncovalent binding forces can be induced between a monopole (cation) and a quadrupole (aromatic ${\pi}$ system). The stability of this RGO dispersion was more sensitive to the strength of the cation-${\pi}$ interactions than to the cation-oxygen functional group interactions. The RGO film prepared without a post-annealing process displayed superior electrical conductivity of 97,500 S/m. Our strategy can facilitate the development of large scalable production methods for preparing printed electronics made from high-quality RGO nanosheets.
