Selective surface functionalization at regions of high local curvature in graphene.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Monolayer graphene was deposited on a Si wafer substrate decorated with SiO(2) nanoparticles (NPs) and then exposed to aryl radicals that were generated in situ from their diazonium precursors. Using micro-Raman mapping, the aryl radicals were found to selectively react with the regions of graphene that covered the NPs. The enhanced chemical reactivity was attributed to the increased strain energy induced by the local mechanical deformation of the graphene.

متن کاملHighly selective covalent organic functionalization of epitaxial graphene
Graphene functionalization with organics is expected to be an important step for the development of graphene-based materials with tailored electronic properties. However, its high chemical inertness makes difficult a controlled and selective covalent functionalization, and most of the works performed up to the date report electrostatic molecular adsorption or unruly functionalization. We show h...
