▎ 摘　　要

Single or few layer graphene can be considered an exciting pseudo-two-dimensional molecular material that potentially has a wide range of applications. A critical bottleneck may arise with issues in their controlled assembly into macroscopic ensembles over large areas both in two and three dimensions. Langmuir-type assembly is a particularly useful method to control and manipulate the distribution of graphene at the air-water interface via edge-edge interactions. In this study, pristine graphene suspended in organic solvent was prepared through adaptation of a previously developed process involving the non-invasive exfoliation of graphite. Successful deposition of graphene at the air-water interface was achieved by manipulating the vapor-pressure of the graphene dispersion through solvent mixing. Through careful control of density by following the pressure-area isotherm during monolayer compression, it is possible to precisely tune the electrical conductivity The resulting assemblies can be easily transferred to glass and other substrates using the Langmuir-Schaefer horizontal deposition method producing thin films with tunable electrical conductivity that exhibits percolation-type behavior. A major advantage of this process is that the conducting films require no further treatment unlike their graphene-oxide counterparts. Moreover, the physical properties of these assemblies can be easily controlled which is a precursor for graphene-based electronic applications. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
