We demonstrate a method for the formation of multilayers composed of reduced graphene oxide (rGO), which can be used for transparent, conducting thin films. Using the layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly of positively and negatively charged GO sheets, we could obtain thin films with highly controllable sheet resistance. The natural negative charge of graphene oxide was turned to positive by the amidation reaction. After forming the multilayer films, the graphene oxide underwent thermal reduction at temperatures above 150 °C. The (rGO+/rGO−) films were characterized by UV-Vis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and their conductivity was measured by the four-point method. We found that after deposition of five (rGO+/rGO−), the coating structure reached the percolation limit, and the film resistance decreased more gradually to around 20 kΩ/sq for the films obtained by eleven deposition cycles with graphene oxide reduced at 250 °C. The formation of thin films on polyimide allows the forming of new flexible conductive materials, which can find applications, e.g., in biomedicine as new electroactive, low-cost, disposable sensors.

Graphene thin films were fabricated via layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly of oppositely charged reduced graphene oxides (RGOs) and benign post-treatment. RGOs dispersions and thin films were characterized by means of transmission electron microscopy, UV-visible absorption spectrophotometer, Raman spectroscopy, and four-point probe. It was found that graphene thin films exhibited a significant increase in electrical conductivity after post-treatment. In addition, post-treatment and film thickness showed an effect on transient optical properties of graphene thin films. The transmittance (800 nm, pulse) of (RGO-PDDA+/RGO-O-)30 film decreased after post-treatment, and the transmittance (800 nm, pulse) of post-treated films decreased with increasing the number of LbL assembled bilayers.
