Abstract

Graphene is a remarkable material with the best surface to volume ratio as a result of its 2D nature, which implies that every atom can be considered as a surface one. These features make graphene attractive for use as a sensing material; however, the limiting factor is the chemical inertness of pristine graphene. Here we propose a method to create reactive centers by removal of fluorine atoms from the outer surface of fluorinated graphene while preserving the backside fluorination. Such partially recovered graphene layers were produced by the action of hydrazine-hydrate vapor on initially non-conducting fluorinated graphite. The reduction degree of the material and its electrical response revealed upon ammonia exposure were controlled by measuring the surface conductivity. We showed experimentally that the sensing properties depend on the reduction degree and found the correlation of the adsorption energy of ammonia with the number of residual fluorine atoms by the use of quantum-chemical calculations.

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.
