Abstract
Modern techniques in microscopic and electronic measurements allow us to carry out very sophisticated experiments on atomically thin graphene sheets and ultrasmall semiconductor structures. When restrained within nanoscale dimensions, graphene can demonstrate the unique electronic properties of caron nanotubes (CNTs). Given that graphene, as the conducting and buffering matrix, can greatly improve the capacity of Li ion batteries, it is, however, important to be aware of an alternative way to ensure the interaction. Since mechanically exfoliated graphene flakes lack precise and scalable control over the structures, which is most undesirable in electronic devices, epitaxial growth of graphene on substrates has attracted increasing attention. It is expected that graphene, with extremely high charge-carrier mobility, will improve device performance and increase the range of potential functions. However, as pointed out, complex integration of graphene into the inorganic semiconductor-based devices is still challenging.
