Outline of Final Research Achievements

Graphene is an atom-thick two-dimensional material which has promising properties for future IoT society, such as high carrier mobility, mechanical flexibility, and optical transparency. In this project, we have developed a new method to synthesize bilayer graphene in large-area by chemical vapor deposition method, as bilayer graphene is very important for electronic applications due to its band gap tenability. We have also demonstrated intercalation of molecules into the bilayer graphene, and applied to several devices including organic photovoltaic cells.
