Graphene Solar Cell: Why Composite w/ GO, Not Graphene?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the preference for using graphene oxide (GO) over graphene in the creation of composites for solar cells. Participants highlight that graphene oxide offers better dispersion in solvents and improved compatibility with various materials, which is crucial for effective composite formation. Additionally, the challenges associated with using pure graphene, such as its tendency to agglomerate, are emphasized as significant drawbacks. Overall, graphene oxide is established as the superior choice for enhancing the performance of solar cell composites.
