Abstract
We have successfully decorated reduced graphene oxide (RGO) with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by microwaving silver alkylcarbamate for 13 seconds using 1-amino-4-methylpiperazine. Uniform AgNPs (20– 40 nm) were effectively prepared, and 1-amino-4-methylpiperazine acted as a reaction medium, reducing agent, and stabilizer. Particle size and morphology were correlated with the silver alkylcarbamate concentration and microwave time. The graphene/AgNPs composites were characterized by Raman, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy to confirm that the AgNPs were uniformly decorated onto the graphene. Measurements of the transparent conductive property at room temperature indicated that these graphene/ AgNPs nanosheets with 55.45% transmittance were electrically continuous with a sheet resistance of approximately 43 kΩ/□.
