Structural and electrical behavior of Ag nanolayer grown on graphene-doped ZrO2 sheet

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: In this study, we report an experimental investigation of the structural, morphological, and electrical properties of the ZrO2-Ag-Graphene sheet. In particular, we use the tape casting technique to produce the flexible ZrO2 ceramic sheet and impregnation and magnetron sputtering techniques to incorporate graphene and silver. Structural and morphological analyses indicate the presence of graphene and silver in the ceramic matrix, confirming the methods efficiency. We noticed that with the deposition of graphene and silver on the ZrO2 sheet, there is a decrease in electrical resistance. This fact is associated with the crystalline structure and morphology of graphene and silver, which makes sheets attractive in electrical applications. Thus, our results become fascinating for specific technological applications.
