Abstract
Twisted multilayer graphene films were synthesized using chemical vapor deposition. The films were treated in oxygen plasma and reduced with hydrazine in the vapor phase to replace inserted oxygen groups with nitrogen ones. Some of the films were treated by hydrazine without preliminary oxidation. The processes of graphene oxidation, reduction and nitridation were characterized using scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Changes in the chemical composition after nitriding of synthesized or oxidized graphene were determined using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Electrical transport properties of the multilayer graphene films were measured using the Hall and magnetoresistive effect. It was found that pre-oxidation of the film before nitridization makes it possible to increase the amount of graphitized nitrogen, which is a strong donor impurity, by 1.5 times. This leads to a decrease in the concentration of positively charged carriers by more than two times and an increase in the film resistance by more than three times.
期刊介绍:
DRM is a leading international journal that publishes new fundamental and applied research on all forms of diamond, the integration of diamond with other advanced materials and development of technologies exploiting diamond. The synthesis, characterization and processing of single crystal diamond, polycrystalline films, nanodiamond powders and heterostructures with other advanced materials are encouraged topics for technical and review articles. In addition to diamond, the journal publishes manuscripts on the synthesis, characterization and application of other related materials including diamond-like carbons, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and boron and carbon nitrides. Articles are sought on the chemical functionalization of diamond and related materials as well as their use in electrochemistry, energy storage and conversion, chemical and biological sensing, imaging, thermal management, photonic and quantum applications, electron emission and electronic devices.
The International Conference on Diamond and Carbon Materials has evolved into the largest and most well attended forum in the field of diamond, providing a forum to showcase the latest results in the science and technology of diamond and other carbon materials such as carbon nanotubes, graphene, and diamond-like carbon. Run annually in association with Diamond and Related Materials the conference provides junior and established researchers the opportunity to exchange the latest results ranging from fundamental physical and chemical concepts to applied research focusing on the next generation carbon-based devices.
