Improved electrical conductivity of graphene films integrated with metal nanowires.

TLDR
Graphene/NW films with a sheet resistance comparable to that of the intrinsic resistance of graphene have been obtained and tested as a transparent electrode replacing indium tin oxide films in electrochromic (EC) devices.
Abstract
Polycrystalline graphene grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on metals and transferred onto arbitrary substrates has line defects and disruptions such as wrinkles, ripples, and folding that adversely affect graphene transport properties through the scattering of the charge carriers. It is found that graphene assembled with metal nanowires (NWs) dramatically decreases the resistance of graphene films. Graphene/NW films with a sheet resistance comparable to that of the intrinsic resistance of graphene have been obtained and tested as a transparent electrode replacing indium tin oxide films in electrochromic (EC) devices. The successful integration of such graphene/NW films into EC devices demonstrates their potential for a wide range of optoelectronic device applications.

Large-Area Synthesis of High-Quality and Uniform Graphene Films on Copper Foils

TL;DR: It is shown that graphene grows in a self-limiting way on copper films as large-area sheets (one square centimeter) from methane through a chemical vapor deposition process, and graphene film transfer processes to arbitrary substrates showed electron mobilities as high as 4050 square centimeters per volt per second at room temperature.

Fine Structure Constant Defines Visual Transparency of Graphene

TL;DR: It is shown that the opacity of suspended graphene is defined solely by the fine structure constant, a = e2/hc � 1/137 (where c is the speed of light), the parameter that describes coupling between light and relativistic electrons and that is traditionally associated with quantum electrodynamics rather than materials science.
