Terahertz Spectroscopy of Nanocrystal-Carbon Nanotube and Graphene Oxide Hybrid Nanostructures

탄소나노튜브와 산화그래핀의 나노구조물 혼합체의 테라헤르쯔 스펙트로스코피

초록/요약

Terahertz (THz) spectroscopy was employed to study the optical/electrical properties of various nanocrystal (NC)-carbon nanotube (i.e., single-, double-, and multi-walled) and graphene oxide (GO) hybrid nanostructures. The power absorption and conductivity decrease in the order: single-walled (SWNT) > double-walled (DWNT) > multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) ≒ GO, showing a strong dependence on the crystallinity of the graphitic layers. The deposition of platinum (Pt), copper sulfide (Cu2S), and tin oxide (SnO2) NC reduced significantly the conductivity of the SWNT and DWNT, irrespective to the nature of the NC, but negligibly that of the MWNT and GO. X?Cray photoelectron and Raman spectroscopy analyses suggested that the conductivity of the NC hybrid nanostructures was mainly reduced by the electron trapping at the surface defects that formed during the in situ solvothermal growth of the NC. As the conductivity of the graphitic layers increases, such electron trapping effect becomes more significant.
