摘要: 下一代电子产品的飞速发展对热管理提出了更高的要求。初始石墨烯的导热性是铜的13倍。本文通过快速热处理化学气相沉积(RTP-CVD)法制备了具有大sp2结构域的单层、双层和多层石墨烯(SLG、BLG、FLG),进一步通过低浓度H2还原制备了高导热石墨烯。在1 000 °C下生长25 min制备出SLG,利用拉曼光谱和透射电子显微镜(TEM)研究了石墨烯的品质。为了验证RTP-CVD法生成的石墨烯的散热能力,将其作为2TB固态硬盘的散热器,通过红外热成像仪进行了研究。结果证明,RTP-CVD生长的石墨烯用于消费电子产品的热管理测试时性能表现优异。SLG显示温度(最高)比商用铜散热器低5 °C,SLG的散热能力比商用铜散热器快200倍左右。综上,利用RTP-CVD法制备的轻质的柔性石墨烯可以成为下一代5G设备和消费电子产品热管理的更好选择。Abstract: Next-generation consumer electronics require excellent thermal management. Graphene is a good choice because its thermal conductivity is 13 times that of copper. Single-, bi- and few-layer graphene (SLG, BLG, FLG) with large sp2 domains were grown by rapid thermal processing chemical vapor deposition (RTP-CVD) from CH4 and H2 using Ar as the diluting gas. The quality of graphene was investigated by Raman spectroscopy and TEM. To demonstrate the heat dissipation capability of RTP-CVD-grown graphene, a 2 TB solid state drive was used and the temperature was measured by a FLIR thermal camera. Results indicate that high thermal conductivity graphene was prepared by diluting the precursor gas with Ar. SLG was prepared at a growth temperature of 1 000 °C and a time of 25 min. A transition from FLG to high-quality BLG was observed at low H2 concentrations. Using SLG, there was a 5 °C lower temperature rise than using a commercial copper heat dissipator. The heat dissipation ability of SLG was approximately 200 times that of commercial copper heat dissipators.
