Deposition of graphene oxide/gold nanocomposite using non-equilibrium plasma jet
Document Type : Original Article
Abstract
In this paper, a direct one-step deposition method through reduction by atmospheric pressure plasma jet was used to produce graphene oxide/gold (GO/Au) nanocomposites from HAuCl4 and graphene oxide suspension. Microdroplets of the solution were reduced to GO/Au nanocomposite in the plasma and printed on glass substrate.. The structure and morphology of the composites were characterized by FESEM, XRD, EDS and Raman spectroscopy. The FESEM images demonestrated that graphene oxide surfaces were decorated by Au nanoparticles. The XRD analysis showed that the formation of Au nanoparticles on the surface of GO nanosheets with the face centered cubic crystalline structure.The FESEM and XRD results revealed that increasing the plasma voltage leads to rising of the Au nanoparticles density on the GO surface. The EDS analysis showed that Au was uniformly distributed on GO surface via the plasma jet. The Raman spectrum of GO/Au contained G and D bands at 1355cm-1 and 1590cm-1, respectively, due to the GO sheets.
