ITO replacement means better and cheaper solar panels -https://www.eurekamagazine.co.uk/design-engineering-features/technology/graphene-goes-nuclear/228848/Paragraf has perfected a proprietary process for depositing single-atom thick, two-dimensional materials, including graphene, directly onto silicon, silicon-carbide, sapphire, gallium-nitride and other semiconductor-compatible substrates. The contamination-free technology is scalable, and compatible with existing electronic device manufacturing processes.Serving the sensor, energy harvesting and semiconductor markets, Paragraf has developed its own Hall-Effect Sensors for measuring magnetic fields in demanding environments. It is now partnering with electronic device makers to enable them to take advantage of the unique properties of graphene.Paragraf graphene is directly compatible with existing electronic device processing and production lines, enabling readily scalable graphene electronic device production. Equally, Paragraf’s ability to highly functionalise graphene offers the potential for new energy harvesting ideas. These include using other environmental interactions and forces to create novel energy generation approaches.The process enables graphene to be produced directly onto semiconductor-compatible substrates such as silicon, silicon-carbide, sapphire and gallium-nitride. It does not require catalytic formation of the graphene so eliminating metallic contamination and allows synthesis of large areas of the material (up to 8” diameter to date).Graphene’s high transparency (only one atomic layer thick), outstanding flexibility, mechanical strength and exceptional conductivity make it particularly suitable for use in electronic device surface applications, such as interactive human interfaces (touchscreens); flexible mobile devices; surface contact for SSDs; and ITO replacement.
