(a) Comparison between the transmittance spectra of single layered graphene, 46 nm thick PEDOT:PSS layer, and 200 nm thick ITO film. Figure inset showing the SEM micrographs of graphene (top left), PEDOT:PSS (top right), and the ITO (bottom) film deposited on SiO2/Si and glass substrates respectively. (b) Transmittance (T) vs. sheet resistance (Rs) plot for different thicknesses of graphene and PEDOT:PSS films on PET substrate and comparison with ITO film deposited on glass. (c–f) DOS calculation of graphene (c), graphene with carbon vacancy (d), and graphene with grain boundary near Dirac point (near zero eV) (f).
