研究目的
To investigate the origins of distortions in phonon modes of graphene grown on cobalt using Raman mapping, considering optical effects, doping, multilayered islands, and strain, and to understand the role of strain from thermal expansion differences.
研究成果
Raman analysis reveals that strain, originating from thermal expansion differences between graphene and cobalt, is a key factor in phonon mode distortions, rather than doping or multilayered inhomogeneities. This enables strain engineering for electronic properties during growth.
研究不足
The study is limited to graphene grown on cobalt substrates; results may not generalize to other catalysts. Optical effects and strain interpretations rely on specific experimental conditions and assumptions. The resolution of Raman mapping may not capture all nanoscale variations.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Graphene was synthesized via rapid cooling chemical vapor deposition (CVD) using a rapid thermal annealing apparatus. Raman spectroscopy was employed for analysis, with micro-Raman mapping to study phonon modes and reflectance measurements for optical effects.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Cobalt polycrystalline thin films (500 nm thick) deposited by radio frequency sputtering onto Si substrates with 500-nm thermal SiO2 were used as catalysts. Graphene samples were grown and partially transferred to SiO2/Si substrates for comparison.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Rapid thermal annealing apparatus for CVD, radio frequency sputtering system for Co deposition, portable BWTEK model BWS415 macro-Raman spectrometer, home-made scanning micro-Raman spectroscope with diode-pumped solid-state laser (λ = 532 nm), Ocean Optics USB4000 spectrometer for reflectance measurements, focused ion beam (Quanta 3D) for cutting graphene membranes.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Substrate cleaning, CVD process with temperature ramp, isothermal reduction and deposition stages, cooling stages under specific gas flows. Raman spectra collected with laser power density and acquisition time specified. Reflectance spectra acquired with white light beam. Focused ion beam used to cut graphene for strain relaxation observation.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
Raman spectra analyzed for peak intensities, ratios, full width half maximum (FWHM), and deconvolution into Lorentzian components. Reflectance data used to study interference effects. Scatter plots and linear fits applied to interpret strain and doping effects.
