Dual Path Mechanism in the Thermal Reduction of Graphene Oxide

TL;DR: A dual path mechanism in the thermal reduction of graphene oxide driven by the oxygen coverage is identified: at low surface density, the O atoms adsorbed as epoxy groups evolve as O(2) leaving the C network unmodified leaving theC network un modified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxygen switching of the epitaxial graphene-metal interaction.

TL;DR: These findings demonstrate that oxygen intercalation is an efficient method for fully decoupling an extended layer of graphene from a metal substrate, such as Ir(111), and pave the way for the fundamental research on graphene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Growth of Dome-Shaped Carbon Nanoislands on Ir(111): The Intermediate between Carbidic Clusters and Quasi-Free-Standing Graphene

TL;DR: By combining high-resolution photoelectron spectroscopy and ab initio calculations, this article showed that carbon nanoislands formed during the growth of a long-range ordered graphene layer on Ir(111) assume a peculiar domelike shape.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermal expansion of supported and freestanding graphene: lattice constant versus interatomic distance.

TL;DR: It is shown that even where the graphene lattice constant contracts, as previously reported for freestanding graphene below room temperature, the average carbon-carbon distance increases with temperature, in both free and supported graphene.
