Graphene oxide (GO) is extracted from graphite oxide synthesized using modified Hummers method. The extracted GO solution is then drop casted onto a p type silicon substrate and dried in hot air oven. The dried solution is annealed at a temperature of about 200 degree Celsius for about one hour to obtain thermally reduced graphene oxide (RGO). Such thermally synthesized RGO usually have a lot of structural defects which can act as a binding site for hydrogen. The binding efficiency of hydrogen to defect centers can be increased by applying electric field to RGO as it changes the carrier concentration (doping) on the surface. This induces more polarization in the hydrogen molecule resulting in strong binding force, thereby increasing its hydrogen storage efficiency. In our experiment we have demonstrated room temperature electric field doping in RGO films by modulating the channel current by changing the back gate voltage which is a precursor for employing RGO in hydrogen storage applications.KeywordsGraphene oxide, Reduced graphene oxide, Field effect, Hydrogen storage, and Defects

Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is a label-free, accurate, fast, and low-cost diagnostic technique that uses the principles of polarization and the motion of bioparticles in applied electric fields. DEP occurs when uncharged particles in the solution are subject to a spatially non-uniform alternating-current (AC) electric field, resulting in the motion of particles by creating a polarizability gradient between the particles and the suspending medium. The movement of particles in DEP is based on the difference in polarizability between the particles and the surrounding medium. If the particles move toward the electrode edge, the region of high electric field gradient, the response is called positive DEP (p-DEP). At the same time, if the particles move away from the electrode edge, the response is called negative DEP (n-DEP). This phenomenon provides a powerful and versatile tool for the non-destructive manipulation of nanoscale materials, allowing for the control of the resistance and the type of the assembly. This technique has been proven to be beneficial in various fields, including environmental research, polymer research, sensors, biosensors, microfluidics, medicine, and diagnostics. This paper reviews the fundamentals of DEP and its specific application in the incorporation of graphene, graphene oxide(GO), and reduced graphene oxide(RGO), enabling the assembly of individual two-dimensional nanostructures at predefined locations in microdevices for gas sensor applications. The review provides an essential framework for parallel fabrication approaches of graphene-based devices.

<p>Silicone rubber filled with low amounts of thermally<br />reduced graphene oxide exhibit non-linear conductivity<br />with exposed to increased electric fields. Such material<br />can be interesting as electric field grading material in<br />HVDC cable accessories. In this study graphene oxide<br />was thermally reduced (rGO) at 120 and 180 °C during<br />12 hours in a hot air oven. The reduction was confirmed<br />by TGA and FTIR. 3 wt.% rGO was then dispersed in a<br />silicone rubber matrix and homogenous dispersion was<br />demonstrated by the scanning electron microscopy. The<br />rGO-filled silicone rubber (120 and 180 °C reduced)<br />exhibited a non-linear resistivity when exposed to an<br />increasing electric (DC) field. The conductivity<br />decreased from 10^14 to 10^11 Ohm m when the electric<br />field increasing from 0.2 to 6 kV/mm. The onset of the<br />non-linear conduction occurred in the range of 1 – 2<br />kV/mm. The long-term stability of the conductivity of<br />the silicone rubber composite was tested. After 47 days<br />ageing at 120 °C, therGO/silicone rubber composite<br />exhibited a slight increase in the onset of non-linear<br />conduction, as well as a minor increase in resistivity.</p>
