▎ 摘　　要

We describe the first preparation of polymer-supported pristine graphene thin films with dramatically different electrical conductivities on the top and bottom surfaces. Pyrene-functional stabilizers based on polystyrene or poly(methyl methacrylate) were first synthesized by copolymerization of their monomers with 1-pyrenemethyl methacrylate. Stable dispersions of pristine graphene nanosheets were prepared by sonication of graphite in chloroform solutions of the pyrene-functional copolymers. Vacuum filtration of the polymer-stabilized graphene dispersions through a porous PTFE filter produces films with an internal gradient in nanosheet concentration. This gradient graphene concentration results in an electrically conductive, graphene-rich surface on one side of the composite film and a nonconductive, polymer-rich surface on its other side. Electrical conductivities ranging from 60 to 194 S/m are measured on the graphene-rich surface, which are among the highest conductivities reported for pristine graphene/polymer composites. Through scanning electron microscopy and secondary ion mass spectrometry characterization, these films were found to contain three distinct layers: a polymer-rich top surface, a transition layer with a gradient in nanosheet concentration, and a buckypaper-like bottom layer consisting of densely packed, highly oriented graphene nanosheets. The gradient structure of these films and their Janus-like electrical conductivity has potential applications in graded coatings for radiofrequency and optical devices.
