Usually , when graphene is made by chemical vapor deposition CVD it results in multiple layers of sheets , and some defects and wrinkles . Current techniques to count the sheets such as Raman and atomic force microscopy are limited in size and need . calibration The new method exploits the fact that graphene quenches fluorescence . The idea is to coat an area of graphene on a surface with a fluorescent polymer dye to allow visualization with a simple fluorescence microscope . The data processing is then quite . straightforward via MaterialsViews Aug 10, 2011 Login
