Single-layer graphene oxide sheet: a novel substrate for dip-pen nanolithography

Chem Commun (Camb). 2011 Sep 28;47(36):10070-2. doi: 10.1039/c1cc12648b. Epub 2011 Aug 9.

Abstract

Graphene oxide (GO) sheet is used as a novel substrate for dip-pen nanolithography (DPN). After GO is transferred onto SiO(2) using the Langmuir-Blodgett technique, CoCl(2) is patterned on both GO and exposed SiO(2) substrates simultaneously by DPN, which is used for growth of different structured carbon nanotubes.
