▎ 摘　　要

Graphene is widely used in various real-life applications due to its high sensitivity to the change in the carrier concentration. Here, we demonstrate that graphene can be used for implementing a reliable lightning detection network as it shows excellent sensitivity to the electric field of both positive and negative polarities, with a wide range of magnitude. The lowest electric field detected by our graphene sensor is 67 V/m, which is much smaller than the detection limit of previously reported graphene sensors and comparable to that of field mill and MEMS-based sensors. We also present the results of outdoor experiments where the response of the graphene sensor to the atmospheric electric field on a lightning day was tested and found to be in good agreement with the existing field mill sensor.
