The growth and oxidation of graphene supported on Rh(111) was studied in situ by high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. By variation of propene pressure and surface temperature the optimum growth conditions were identified, yielding graphene with low defect density. Oxidation of graphene was studied at temperatures between 600 and 1000 K, at an oxygen pressure of ∼2 × 10−6 mbar. The oxidation follows sigmoidal reaction kinetics. In the beginning, the reaction rate is limited by the number of defects, which represent the active sites for oxygen dissociation. After an induction period, the reaction rate increases and graphene is rapidly removed from the surface by oxidation. For graphene with a high defect density we found that the oxidation is faster. In general, a reduction of the induction period and a faster oxidation occur at higher temperatures.

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.
