Impedance and Resistivity Behavior of Graphene Oxide-Activated Carbon Hybrids

Article Preview

Abstract:

We measured the resistivity and conductivity behavior of activated carbon and an activated carbon – graphene oxide (GO – AC) hybrid using two point probe method. As graphene oxide is well known as insulator, the effects of different ratio of activated carbon on conductivity of hybrid GO – AC was investigated.
