The substrate used is a microscopic glass slide. rGO is dispersed in NMP (N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone) to form a dispersed solution. What is the best suited deposition technique to obtain an even deposition of rGO on the glass substrate? Should we use hydrophilic glass substrates or hydrophobic glass substrates?
Qasim Qayyum Kashif Thank you so much for your reply. I tried depositing rGO-NMP on hydrophobic glass substrates as mentioned, but it did not adhere to the substrate very well. Could it be that rGO-NMP mixture is hydrophilic in nature?
For our SiNx windows, we use 20s of glow discharge (air plasma, 10 mA) to make the surface hydrophil. This works also for glass slides. Additionally, we use 5 min of glow discharge (air plasma, 10 mA) to roughen the surface. See this paper for further information: Article Silicon nitride grids are compatible with correlative negati...
