Graphene-containing membrane, process for producing the same, graphene-containing membrane laminate and photoelectric conversion device

Abstract

The embodiment provides a graphene-containing membrane producible by wet-coating and excellent in electric properties, a process for producing the membrane, a graphene-containing membrane laminate, and a photoelectric conversion device using the graphene-containing membrane. The graphene-containing membrane contains graphene having a graphene skeleton combined with polyalkyleneimine chains. The membrane has a ratio of the photoelectron intensity at the energy peak position of C1s orbital to that at the bonding energy on an X-ray photoelectron spectrum measured on an ITO film of 288 eV in a range of 5.5 to 20. This membrane can be produced by heating a graphene oxide-containing film in the presence of polyalkyleneimine and further heating the film in the presence of a reducing agent. The graphene-containing membrane can be so installed in a photoelectric conversion device that it is placed between the photoelectric conversion layer and the electrode.
