Realization of ferromagnetic graphene oxide with high magnetization by doping graphene oxide with nitrogen.

ABSTRACT: The long spin diffusion length makes graphene very attractive for novel spintronic devices, and thus has triggered a quest for integrating the charge and spin degrees of freedom. However, ideal graphene is intrinsic non-magnetic, due to a delocalized ? bonding network. Therefore, synthesis of ferromagnetic graphene or its derivatives with high magnetization is urgent due to both fundamental and technological importance. Here we report that N-doping can be an effective route to obtain a very high magnetization of ca. 1.66 emu/g, and can make graphene oxide (GO) to be ferromagnetism with a Curie-temperature of 100.2 K. Clearly, our findings can offer the easy realization of ferromagnetic GO with high magnetization, therefore, push the way for potential applications in spintronic devices.

Doping effect in graphene-graphene oxide interlayer.

Project description:Interlayer coupling in graphene-based van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures plays a key role in determining and modulating their physical properties. Hence, its influence on the optical and electronic properties cannot be overlooked in order to promote various next-generation applications in electronic and opto-electronic devices based on the low-dimensional materials. Herein, the optical and electrical properties of the vertically stacked large area heterostructure of the monolayer graphene transferred onto a monolayer graphene oxide film are investigated. An effective and stable p-doping property of this structure is shown by comparison to that of the graphene device fabricated on a silicon oxide substrate. Through Raman spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations of the charge transport characteristics, it is found that graphene is affected by sustainable p-doping effects induced from underneath graphene oxide even though they have weak interlayer interactions. This finding can facilitate the development of various fascinating graphene-based heterostructures and extend their practical applications in integrated devices with advanced functionalities.

Effect of Nitrogen Doping on the Optical Bandgap and Electrical Conductivity of Nitrogen-Doped Reduced Graphene Oxide.

Project description:Graphene as a material for optoelectronic design applications has been significantly restricted owing to zero bandgap and non-compatible handling procedures compared with regular microelectronic ones. In this work, nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide (N-rGO) with tunable optical bandgap and enhanced electrical conductivity was synthesized via a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. The properties of the synthesized N-rGO were determined using XPS, FTIR and Raman spectroscopy, UV/vis, as well as FESEM techniques. The UV/vis spectroscopic analysis confirmed the narrowness of the optical bandgap from 3.4 to 3.1, 2.5, and 2.2 eV in N-rGO samples, where N-rGO samples were synthesized with a nitrogen doping concentration of 2.80, 4.53, and 5.51 at.%. Besides, an enhanced n-type electrical conductivity in N-rGO was observed in Hall effect measurement. The observed tunable optoelectrical characteristics of N-rGO make it a suitable material for developing future optoelectronic devices at the nanoscale.

Nitrogen cluster doping for high-mobility/conductivity graphene films with millimeter-sized domains.

Project description:Directly incorporating heteroatoms into the hexagonal lattice of graphene during growth has been widely used to tune its electrical properties with superior doping stability, uniformity, and scalability. However the introduction of scattering centers limits this technique because of reduced carrier mobilities and conductivities of the resulting material. Here, we demonstrate a rapid growth of graphitic nitrogen cluster-doped monolayer graphene single crystals on Cu foil with remarkable carrier mobility of 13,000 cm2 V-1 s-1 and a greatly reduced sheet resistance of only 130 ohms square-1. The exceedingly large carrier mobility with high n-doping level was realized by (i) incorporation of nitrogen-terminated carbon clusters to suppress the carrier scattering and (ii) elimination of all defective pyridinic nitrogen centers by oxygen etching. Our study opens up an avenue for the growth of high-mobility/conductivity doped graphene with tunable work functions for scalable graphene-based electronic and device applications.

Doping with Graphitic Nitrogen Triggers Ferromagnetism in Graphene.

Project description:Nitrogen doping opens possibilities for tailoring the electronic properties and band gap of graphene toward its applications, e.g., in spintronics and optoelectronics. One major obstacle is development of magnetically active N-doped graphene with spin-polarized conductive behavior. However, the effect of nitrogen on the magnetic properties of graphene has so far only been addressed theoretically, and triggering of magnetism through N-doping has not yet been proved experimentally, except for systems containing a high amount of oxygen and thus decreased conductivity. Here, we report the first example of ferromagnetic graphene achieved by controlled doping with graphitic, pyridinic, and chemisorbed nitrogen. The magnetic properties were found to depend strongly on both the nitrogen concentration and type of structural N-motifs generated in the host lattice. Graphenes doped below 5 at. % of nitrogen were nonmagnetic; however, once doped at 5.1 at. % of nitrogen, N-doped graphene exhibited transition to a ferromagnetic state at ∼69 K and displayed a saturation magnetization reaching 1.09 emu/g. Theoretical calculations were used to elucidate the effects of individual chemical forms of nitrogen on magnetic properties. Results showed that magnetic effects were triggered by graphitic nitrogen, whereas pyridinic and chemisorbed nitrogen contributed much less to the overall ferromagnetic ground state. Calculations further proved the existence of exchange coupling among the paramagnetic centers mediated by the conduction electrons.

Effect of Doping Temperatures and Nitrogen Precursors on the Physicochemical, Optical, and Electrical Conductivity Properties of Nitrogen-Doped Reduced Graphene Oxide.

Project description:The greatest challenge in graphene-based material synthesis is achieving large surface area of high conductivity. Thus, tuning physico-electrochemical properties of these materials is of paramount importance. An even greater problem is to obtain a desired dopant configuration which allows control over device sensitivity and enhanced reproducibility. In this work, substitutional doping of graphene oxide (GO) with nitrogen atoms to induce lattice-structural modification of GO resulted in nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide (N-rGO). The effect of doping temperatures and various nitrogen precursors on the physicochemical, optical, and conductivity properties of N-rGO is hereby reported. This was achieved by thermal treating GO with different nitrogen precursors at various doping temperatures. The lowest doping temperature (600 °C) resulted in less thermally stable N-rGO, yet with higher porosity, while the highest doping temperature (800 °C) produced the opposite results. The choice of nitrogen precursors had a significant impact on the atomic percentage of nitrogen in N-rGO. Nitrogen-rich precursor, 4-nitro-?-phenylenediamine, provided N-rGO with favorable physicochemical properties (larger surface area of 154.02 m2 g-1) with an enhanced electrical conductivity (0.133 S cm-1) property, making it more useful in energy storage devices. Thus, by adjusting the doping temperatures and nitrogen precursors, one can tailor various properties of N-rGO.

Charge transfer and electronic doping in nitrogen-doped graphene.

Project description:Understanding the modification of the graphene's electronic structure upon doping is crucial for enlarging its potential applications. We present a study of nitrogen-doped graphene samples on SiC(000) combining angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The comparison between tunneling and angle-resolved photoelectron spectra reveals the spatial inhomogeneity of the Dirac energy shift and that a phonon correction has to be applied to the tunneling measurements. XPS data demonstrate the dependence of the N 1s binding energy of graphitic nitrogen on the nitrogen concentration. The measure of the Dirac energy for different nitrogen concentrations reveals that the ratio usually computed between the excess charge brought by the dopants and the dopants' concentration depends on the latter. This is supported by a tight-binding model considering different values for the potentials on the nitrogen site and on its first neighbors.

Magnetization dependent tunneling conductance of ferromagnetic barriers.

Project description:Recent experiments on van der Waals antiferromagnets have shown that measuring the temperature (T) and magnetic field (H) dependence of the conductance allows their magnetic phase diagram to be mapped. Similarly, experiments on ferromagnetic CrBr3 barriers enabled the Curie temperature to be determined at H = 0, but a precise interpretation of the magnetoconductance data at H ≠ 0 is conceptually more complex, because at finite H there is no well-defined phase boundary. Here we perform systematic transport measurements on CrBr3 barriers and show that the tunneling magnetoconductance depends on H and T exclusively through the magnetization M(H, T) over the entire temperature range investigated. The phenomenon is reproduced by the spin-dependent Fowler-Nordheim model for tunneling, and is a direct manifestation of the spin splitting of the CrBr3 conduction band. Our analysis unveils a new approach to probe quantitatively different properties of atomically thin ferromagnetic insulators related to their magnetization by performing simple conductance measurements.

Exclusive Substitutional Nitrogen Doping on Graphene Decoupled from an Insulating Substrate.

Project description:The on-surface synthesis of atomically flat N-doped graphene on oxidized copper is presented. Besides circumventing the almost standard use of metallic substrates for growth, this method allows producing graphene with ∼2.0 at % N in a substitutional configuration directly decoupled from the substrate. Angle-resolved photoemission shows a linear energy-momentum dispersion where the Dirac point lies at the Fermi level. Additionally, the N functional centers can be selectively tailored in sp2 substitutional configuration by making use of a purpose-made molecular precursor: dicyanopyrazophenanthroline (C16H6N6).

The Magnetization of a Composite Based on Reduced Graphene Oxide and Polystyrene.

Project description:The use of reduced graphene oxide (r-GO) is a promising way of fabricating organic-inorganic composites with unique electrical and magnetic properties. In our work, polystyrene/r-GO composites were synthesized, in which both the components are linked together by covalent bonds. The r-GO used differs from the graphene obtained from graphite through mechanical exfoliation using the 'scotch tape' by presenting many structural defects. Binding in the composite structure between the components was confirmed by infrared spectroscopy. Elemental analysis was carried out by energy dispersive X-ray analysis. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Raman spectroscopy were used to monitor the 2D-order in exfoliated r-GO galleries. Using a vibrating-sample magnetometer, we have shown that the composite magnetization loops demonstrate type-II superconductivity up to room temperature due to r-GO flakes. We believe that a strain field in the r-GO flakes covalently binding to a polymeric matrix is responsible for the superconductivity phenomena.

Magnetization of Ultraviolet-Reduced Graphene Oxide Flakes in Composites Based on Polystyrene.

Project description:This work presents our study results of the magnetization of multilayer UV-reduced graphene oxide (UV-rGO), polymer matrix (polystyrene), and a conjugated composite based on them. The mesoscopic structure of the composites synthesized in this work was studied by such methods as X-ray diffraction, SEM, as well as NMR-, IR- and Raman spectroscopy. The magnetization of the composites under investigation and their components was measured using a vibrating-sample magnetometer. It has been shown that the UV-reduction process leads to the formation of many submicron holes distributed inside rGO flakes, which can create edge defects, causing possibly magnetic order in the graphite samples under investigation on the mesoscopic level. This article provides an alternative explanation for the ferromagnetic hysteresis loop in UV-rGO on the base of superconductivity type-II.
