Effect of defects controlled by preparation condition and heat treatment on the ferromagnetic properties of few-layer graphene

Abstract Magnetism in graphene has stimulated extensive studies to search for novel metal-free magnetic device. In this paper, we use a synthesis method far from equilibrium state named self-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS) to produce few-layer graphene with different defect contents and...
