Determination of Graphene Sheets Content in Carbon Materials by Raman Spectroscopy

Graphene layer is a monolayer of graphite. Graphene single layer has confirmed to have a higher electron and hole mobility than silicon and has high heat conduction and special optical properties. And un‐perfect graphene sheets exist in any carbon materials. In our previous result to determine the graphene sheets content in any carbon material can be determined by X‐ray spectrum combination with a peak decomposition method. In this study, we have prepared two serious carbon materials from wood wastes, with and without MnO₂ catalytic pyrolysis processes. Results show that all the G band intensity of all synthesized samples including a commercial graphene powder in Raman spectrum has a proportional relation with the graphene sheets content in these carbon materials.
