Temperature-modulated synthesis of vertically oriented atomic bilayer graphene nanowalls grown on stainless steel by inductively coupled plasma chemical vapour deposition.

This work has been carried out within the “ESTORE” research project of MICINN, a collaboration between ENPHOCAMAT and a ICMAB research group, and referring to some of the results of three doctoral theses carried out in recent years at the IN2UB. The application of these nanostructures is aimed at the fabrication of electrodes for supercapacitors. The most prominent aspects are:
• Growth of graphene nanowalls by ICP-CVD on stainless steel in the range 675–775 °C.
• Monatomic two-layer graphene nanowalls grown at 750 °C by ICP-CVD.
• Defects mainly at the edges and not at the faces of the graphene nanowalls.
• Easy anchorage of MeOx particles on edges and high chemical stability of the system.
