Light-Emitting Illumination and Field Emission Device of Potassium Hydroxide-Doped Electrochemically Reduced Graphene Oxide

摘要

This paper presents a parallel plate-type field emission device of potassium hydroxide-doped electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (GO) manufactured using highly oriented pyrolytic graphite through electrochemical exfoliation. The material properties of the GO were tested through Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The optimal electron emission characteristics of the device were as follows: turnon field = 2.03 V/μm, field emission current = 16.4 μA, and field emission enhancement factor = 8377. At an emission peak wavelength of 563.7 nm, the optimal device had a light flux of 4.21 lumens and an illumination of 140.3 lux. These properties can be utilized in various optoelectronic devices, such as nanoelectronics devices, sensors, electrochemical systems, and energy storage devices.
