TLDR
The Young's modulus of graphene is estimated by measuring the strain applied by a pressure difference across graphene membranes using Raman spectroscopy and comparing the measured strain with numerical simulation, and the estimated values are 2.4 ±0.4 and 2.0 ± 0.5 TPa, respectively.Abstract:
The Young's modulus of graphene is estimated by measuring the strain applied by a pressure difference across graphene membranes using Raman spectroscopy. The strain induced on pressurized graphene balloons can be estimated directly from the peak shift of the Raman G band. By comparing the measured strain with numerical simulation, we obtained the Young's modulus of graphene. The estimated Young's modulus values of single- and bi-layer graphene are 2.4\pm0.4 TPa and 2.0\pm0.5 TPa, respectively.read more
