From two-dimensional to one-dimensional structures: SiC nano-whiskers derived from graphene via a catalyst-free carbothermal reaction

2015

One-dimensional β-SiC nano-whiskers are synthesized from two-dimensional graphene by a facile catalyst-free carbothermal reaction. Comparing with closed or semi-closed carbon sources, the large exterior surface area and exposed rich edge render graphene an ideal carbon source for the scale-up production of carbide materials.
