  • Title: Interaction between metal and graphene: dependence on the layer number of graphene.
    Author: Lee J, Novoselov KS, Shin HS.
    Journal: ACS Nano; 2011 Jan 25; 5(1):608-12. PubMed ID: 21174405.
    Abstract:
    The interaction between graphene and metal was investigated by studying the G band splitting in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra of single-, bi-, and trilayer graphene. The Ag deposition on graphene induced large enhancement of the Raman signal of graphene, indicating SERS of graphene. In particular, the G band was split into two distinct peaks in the SERS spectrum of graphene. The extent of the G band splitting was 13.0 cm(-1) for single-layer, 9.6 cm(-1) for bilayer, and 9.4 cm(-1) for trilayer graphene, whereas the G band in the SERS spectrum of a thick multilayer was not split. The average SERS enhancement factor of the G band was 24 for single-layer, 15 for bilayer, and 10 for trilayer graphene. These results indicate that there is a correlation between SERS enhancement factor and the extent of the G band splitting, and the strongest interaction occurs between Ag and single-layer graphene. Furthermore, the Ag deposition on graphene can induce doping of graphene. The intensity ratio of 2D and G bands (I(2D)/I(G)) decreased after Ag deposition on graphene, indicating doping of graphene. From changes in positions of G and 2D bands after the metal deposition on graphene, Ag deposition induced n-doping of graphene, whereas Au deposition induced p-doping.
