Frequency dependence dielectrophoresis technique for bridging graphene nanoribbons

Abstract

We succeeded in bridging unzipped graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) and separating them from unwanted single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) using a frequency-dependent dielectrophoresis (DEP) method by varying the frequency and applied voltage used for future assembly. Atomic force micrographs and Raman spectra proved that unzipped GNRs were successfully bridged by the DEP method at frequencies higher than 13 MHz. The theoretical calculation also supported the finding that only GNRs were collected from a mixture of SWNTs/GNRs suspensions
