Popis: | We studied a possibility of reduction of the surface of graphite fluoride obtained by fluorination of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) by a gaseous mixture of BrF 3 and Br 2 - X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed a layered structure of the fluorinated product being a second-stage intercalate due to a presence of bromine molecules between the fluorinated graphite layers. Scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy showed that the "old" surface of graphite fluoride (exposed to the ambient air) has the graphite-like structure, while the fresh cleaved surface is non-conductive. Therefore, the outer layers of graphite fluoride can be reduced by water present in the laboratory atmosphere. The sample was treated by H 2 O vapor to confirm that. The reduction was controlled by Raman spectroscopy using intensity of the 1360 and 1580 cm -1 bands. The energy dependent photoelectron spectroscopy was used for estimation of thickness of the reduction layer, which was found, does not exceed 2-3 graphite layers. The obtained results indicate the possibility of synthesis of graphene layers on dielectric fluorinated graphite matrix. |
