Flexural mode of graphene on a substrate
نویسندگان
چکیده
Out of plane vibrations are suppressed in graphene layers placed on a substrate. These vibrations, in suspended samples, are relevant for the understanding of properties such as the electrical resistivity, the thermal expansion coefficient, and others. We use a general framework to study the properties of the out of plane mode in graphene on different substrates, taking into account the dynamics of the substrate. We discuss broadening of this mode and how it hybridizes with the substrate Rayleigh mode, comparing our model with experimental observations. We use the model to estimate the substrate induced changes in the thermal expansion coefficient and in the temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity.

A review on the flexural mode of graphene: lattice dynamics, thermal conduction, thermal expansion, elasticity and nanomechanical resonance.
Single-layer graphene is so flexible that its flexural mode (also called the ZA mode, bending mode, or out-of-plane transverse acoustic mode) is important for its thermal and mechanical properties. Accordingly, this review focuses on exploring the relationship between the flexural mode and thermal and mechanical properties of graphene. We first survey the lattice dynamic properties of the flexu...
متن کاملLimits on charge carrier mobility in suspended graphene due to flexural phonons.
The temperature dependence of the mobility in suspended graphene samples is investigated. In clean samples, flexural phonons become the leading scattering mechanism at temperature T≳10 K, and the resistivity increases quadratically with T. Flexural phonons limit the intrinsic mobility down to a few m(2)/V s at room T. Their effect can be eliminated by applying strain or placing graphene on a su...

Background and Aim: graphene is a two-dimensional nanostructure consist of a single layer of SP2 carbon atoms that arranged by covalent bonds in a hexagonal bee web. The reinforcement by GO is due to functional groups that lead to strong interaction, dispersion and stress distribution. Due to lower mechanical properties and strength of PEMA than PMMA, we evaluate effect of GO on mechanical prop...
