Abstract
Processing a graphene surface by irradiation with a fs-pulsed laser at energies below the ablation threshold allows the production of non-thermally modified regions with slightly different properties than pristine graphene. Oxidized nanoislands, optical forging, and nanopore networks are modifications of the graphene structure recently reported using a wide range of fs-laser energies. In this work, we first determined the pulse energy threshold of a fs-laser for the ablation of a commercial CVD graphene sample. Then we irradiated the sample in an extended range of pulse energies relative to the ablation threshold value. The irradiation process was simultaneously monitored by Raman spectroscopy, and the evolution of each Raman parameter (central position, bandwidth, and intensity) was analyzed. Special attention was given to the pulse energy that produced linear relationships between most Raman parameter pairs. These linear correlations evidence the interrelation between multiple Raman parameters and a soft processing method applicable to the controlled modification of the graphene lattice.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Raman Spectroscopy is an international journal dedicated to the publication of original research at the cutting edge of all areas of science and technology related to Raman spectroscopy. The journal seeks to be the central forum for documenting the evolution of the broadly-defined field of Raman spectroscopy that includes an increasing number of rapidly developing techniques and an ever-widening array of interdisciplinary applications.
Such topics include time-resolved, coherent and non-linear Raman spectroscopies, nanostructure-based surface-enhanced and tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopies of molecules, resonance Raman to investigate the structure-function relationships and dynamics of biological molecules, linear and nonlinear Raman imaging and microscopy, biomedical applications of Raman, theoretical formalism and advances in quantum computational methodology of all forms of Raman scattering, Raman spectroscopy in archaeology and art, advances in remote Raman sensing and industrial applications, and Raman optical activity of all classes of chiral molecules.
