Graphene: a monolayer sheet of graphite shows many attractive properties, which are expected to be applied to various devices. Development of a high throughput method has been required to realize the applications. Chemical exfoliation via graphene oxide (GO) has been considered one of the promising methods. However, the graphene reduced from GO showed poor crystallinity and mobility than that of mechanically exfoliated graphene. Many reduction methods have been investigated to obtain high mobility graphene from GO lately. In this review, we introduce a novel reduction method which we have developed to convert GO to graphene by explaining their advantages and some ‰aws to be solved.

Infrared spectroscopy combined with the matrix isolation method, where samples are trapped by a cold and inert-molecular solid, has been used for the investigations of small water clusters. After the descriptions of the stable structures and vibrations of the clusters, the author explains experimental techniques of the matrix isolation and demonstrates recent works on the clusters isolated in the solids of rare gases, para-hydrogen, and methane as well as the hydrogen adsorption layer on a vapor deposited NaCl ˆlm. The relation between the frequency shift of the hydrogen-bonded OH stretch and the matrix critical-temperature is also shown.

Ellipsometry monitoring was carried out in-situ for the analyses of substrate surface in the ˆrst stages of graphene growth in magnetron plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. By the comparison of the experimentally obtained trajectory of ellipsometric parameters on the CD coordinate plane to that of the calculated ones, it has been found that graphene tends to grow parallel to substrate surface under the pressure of 10 Pa while perpendicularly under that of 200 Pa.

Field emission features from Si and W tips are drastically improved upon coating even with simple carbon ˆlms. In this paper, in order to obtain clues to clarify the mechanism, we examine atomistic STM observations including local barrier height (LBH) and ˆeld emission imagings of the carbon ˆlms. And we also examine the ˆeld emission features from the shape-controlled W tips before and after the carbon coatings, enabling us to estimate the local electric ˆeld at the tip apex. From the STM observations, we ˆnd that the carbon ˆlm consists of nm-scale grains with various electronic properties and that the FE current varies grain by grain and is higher near the edge of each grain. The eŠective work functions evaluated from the slopes of the Fowler-Nordheim (FN) plot are constant regardless of the thickness of the carbon coating, although they are largely scattered for the ˆlms thinner than 1 nm. On the basis of the observed results, we discuss the mechanism of low macroscopic ˆeld emission from carbon ˆlms.
