Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we succeeded to develop GO-metal complex hybrids and rGO-metal complex hybrids with hybridizing graphene oxide (GO) and its reduced form (rGO), which have interesting unique properties. It was revealed that GO which is a precursor of rGO shows high proton conductivity and that rGO in which GO is variously reduced exhibits properties of p type semiconductor or n type semiconductor. We have also found the property as a photocatalyst that decomposes water by light irradiation for rGO.
