Abstract
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and graphene are sp2 hybridized carbon nanostructures which exhibit extraordinary electronic properties arising from their unique energy dispersions and dimensionalities. A major issue preventing implementation of these materials into integrated electronic devices is the absence of large-scale controllable synthesis and subsequent manipulation. To circumvent this issue, solution processing of SWNTs and graphene has been proposed. Deposition of thin film networks allows the realization of a new class of materials that are useful for large-area or “macro-electronics” on flexible and inexpensive platforms.
In this thesis, controllable and efficient solution-based deposition of SWNT and graphene thin film networks and their opto-electronic properties are investigated. Topics such as material dynamics in liquid, chemical structures, defects, morphology, and doping are studied utilizing various spectroscopy and microscopy analysis along with complementary electrical measurements. Further insight is provided through demonstrations of proof-of-principle thin film transistors, organic photovoltaics, and field emitters based on solution-processed SWNT and graphene thin films.
