The transversal conductance through thin multi-layered films of reduced graphene oxide was studied as a function of temperature in a solid-state device setup designed for molecular electronic measurements. Upon cooling to cryogenic temperatures, the resistivity of the films increased by about three orders of magnitude compared to the value at room temperature, and this temperature dependence was described by a variable range hopping model. Above a certain threshold voltage the films could be annealed electrically at low temperatures. This electrical annealing resulted in a dramatic decrease in resistivity by up to four orders of magnitude. Upon reheating, the conductivity of the annealed films displayed an almost negligible temperature dependence. These results are promising for the application of reduced graphene oxide as a soft top-contact layer for molecular monolayer devices in the solid-state.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
