The method comprises: connecting a piece of a 3-dimensional carbon-based material as an electrode and another piece of a 3-dimensional carbon-based material or inert material as another electrode to the two electrodes of a DC power supply respectively, wherein an end face of at least one piece of a 3-dimensional carbon-based material serves as the working face and is positioned in contact and parallel with the liquid surface of an electrolyte solution; then electrifying the two pieces for electrolysis, during which the working zone for the end face serving as the working face is between −5 mm below and 5 mm above the liquid surface of the electrolyte solution; and intermittently or continuously controlling the end face within the working zone, such that the graphite lamella on the end face of the at least one piece of the 3-dimensional carbon-based material as an electrode is expansion-exfoliated and cut into graphene oxide by electrochemical oxidation, to obtain a graphene oxide-containing electrolyte solution.
