Synthesis of transparent bio-electrodes for biophysiological measurements based on modified graphene oxide.

The main objective of this work was to fabricate smart nanocomposite transparent conductive biophysiological electrodes based on modified graphene oxide (GO). The GO is abundant, flexible conductors that can be formulated as a transparent sheet and thereby alleviate the drawbacks of using indium tin oxide in transparent electrodes, like its scarcity, brittleness, and cost. GO was synthesized by a modified version of Hummers' method under highly acidic conditions with sulfuric acid and showed good distribution at a high temperature of 90 °C.
