We measured the proton conductivity of bulk graphite oxide (GO'), a graphene oxide/proton hybrid (GO-H), and a graphene oxide (GO) nanosheet for the first time. GO is well-known electronic insulator, but for proton conduction we observed the reverse trend, as it exhibited superionic conductivity. The hydrophilic sites present in GO as -O-, -OH, and -COOH functional groups attract the protons, which propagate through hydrogen-bonding networks along the absorbed water film. The proton conductivities of GO' and GO-H at 100% humidity were similar to 10(-4) and similar to 10(-5) S cm(-1), respectively, whereas that for GO was amazingly high, nearly 10(-2) S cm(-1). This finding indicates the possibility of GO-based perfect two-dimensional proton-conductive materials for applications in fuel cells, sensors, and so on.
