Abstract
Provided are a method for preparing a vertical branched graphene comprising treating a pristine vertical graphene with an inert plasma in the absence of an introduced carbon source to develop a vertical branched graphene. The method may also include pre-treating a substrate surface with an inert plasma; depositing a pristine vertical graphene onto the substrate surface by contacting the substrate surface with a deposition plasma comprising a carbon source gas for a deposition period. Also provided are a vertical branched graphene attached to a substrate surface, the vertical branched graphene having a trunk portion extending from the substrate surface, said trunk possessing an increased degree of branching as the distance from the substrate surface increases; and a freestanding branched graphene with a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end comprising a trunk portion, the trunk portion possessing and increased degree of branching as the distance from the proximal end increases and the distance to the distal end decreases.
