Vitamin C Reduced Graphene Oxide Enhances Multimodal Microelectrodes

Incorporating nanocarbons as neural electrode coatings can enhance their surface area. However, microfabricating the electrodes requires the use of harmful chemicals and extreme heating. In an article recently accepted by the journal iScience, researchers adopted a scalable, facile and safe reduction technique to obtain reduced graphene oxide (rGO) films by using Vitamin C (VC) for the reduction reaction.
