The invention discloses a
carbon film obtained by
self assembly of
graphene oxide or its derivatives and a preparation method thereof, and relates to a preparation method for a highly ordered
carbon film. The objective of the invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art that the combination between a
carbon film and a substrate is poor, the preparation technology is complex, the cost is high, and the thickness of carbon films is difficult to control in the process of preparation. The carbon film provided in the invention uses
graphene oxide or its derivatives as the
raw material and is obtained through the process of
self assembly. The carbon film is prepared by the following steps: dispersing
graphene oxide or its derivatives in a
solvent so as to obtain a solution, immersing a substrate into the solution and allowing the solution to stand at a constant temperature for
assembly, wherein the temperature is in a range of 50 to 100 DEG C. The carbon film prepared in the invention has smooth surfaces, strong bonding force to the substrate and good light
transmittance and mechanical properties; the modulus of the carbon film is 80 to 120 GPa, and the
hardness is 7 to 9 Gpa; the carbon film is orderly orientated along the surface of the substrate, and the thickness of the carbon film is 10 nm to 2 mu m. The preparation process is controllable and concise and produces products with controllable thickness. The carbon film provided in the invention has broad application prospects in such fields as
electrode materials, electronic chips, solar cells and high efficient
catalysis.
