The diverse hybridization states of carbon atoms (sp, sp2, and sp3) serve as the basis for creating a wide range of carbon allotropes [1]. Among the carbon-based materials, graphene has garnered significant attention owing to its distinct properties. Graphene is a monolayer of hexagonally arranged sp2 hybridized carbon atoms [2].
Section snippets Graphene As displayed in Fig. 1, graphene can be prepared by both “top-down” and “bottom-up” approaches. As for “top-down” approaches, the mechanical stripping method was first proposed to gain graphene with high quality in 2004 [34]. However, it is time-consuming and hard to control the number of layers and size of graphene causing single layer graphene to be difficult to identify and separate from multiple layer graphene.
