In situ growth of graphdiyne on arbitrary substrates with a controlled-release method†
Abstract
A versatile controlled-release method was developed for the in situ growth of graphdiyne on arbitrary substrates. Cu2+-Ions escaped from the polyvinylpyrrolidone/copper acetate film on the surface of various substrates (e.g. SiO2, ZnO, Al, etc.), acting as the catalyst for the acetylenic coupling reaction.
