The graphene films were inspected in situ using optical microscopy (Olympus BX 51 M) to obtain images with different magnifications displaying the morphologies of the graphene/SiO2 surfaces before and after different times of VHF exposure. A scanning electron microscope (Gemini, Zeiss, Ultra 55) was used to investigate the surface morphology of the samples at different acceleration voltages to obtain high-contrast images at different magnifications. EDX spectroscopy of graphene samples was also obtained with the same SEM tool to analyze trace elements on the graphene samples after VHF exposure. Raman spectroscopy was performed using an alpha300 R spectrometer (WITec) with a λ = 532 nm laser and a 100× objective. AFM images were obtained with a PSIA XE-100 (Park Systems) in tapping mode to analyze the morphologies and dimensions of the graphene grain boundaries after VHF exposure. A conventional probe station in connection with a SCS4200 parameter analyzer (Keithley) was used for four-probe measurements of the sheet resistances of the graphene samples before and after VHF exposure. LEEM/LEED characterization of CVD graphene on copper was done using a LEEM (FE-LEEM P90, Specs). The diffraction spots for dark-field imaging were selected by means of an aperture in the back focal plane of the objective lens.

The surface morphology of 2D PhenPtCl2 nanosheets were examined with SEM (Hitachi-S4800). Optical images were taken by optical microscope (SOPTOP CX40M). XRD measurements were performed on a Bruker Dimension Icon D8 Advance system using Cu Kα radiation (40 kV, 40 mA). TGA data were collected by thermal analysis system (NETZSCH STA449 F3). Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance was analyzed by superconducting (solid) nuclear magnetic resonance (Bruker AVANCE 400WB). Infrared spectra were gathered by FT-IR (Thermo Fisher Scientific nicolt Is50). Raman spectra were performed using a WITec alpha 300 R spectrometer with 532 nm laser excitation. The X ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS) spectra of these samples were analyzed by ESCALAB 250Xi XPS equipped with a monochromatic Al Kα source (λ = 1486.6 eV). The adventitious C 1s peak of ~284.8 eV was used for charging corrections. HAADF-STEM images and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) mapping were acquired by the FEI Titan Cubed Themis G2 300 with a probe corrector and a monochromator at 200 kV. Photoemission endstations BL11B in Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) was used for the help in characterizations.

FTIR-ATR spectroscopy was performed using a Frontier—Perkin Elmer, 64 scans with a resolution of 1 cm−1 using attenuated total reflectance (ATR) in the range between 650 and 4000 cm−1. Raman spectroscopy measurements were carried out using an Alpha 300 R spectrometer—Witec, containing a double monochromator, a 532 nm laser and a microscope with a 20× objective lens; 532 nm laser excitation lines were used. The laser power on the surface of the samples was approximately 7.5 mW cm−2 with an integration time of 3 s and a total of 10 scans. Zeta potential measurements were obtained in a Zetasizer Nano from Malvern Instruments. The readings were performed in triplicate on both sides of each sample at pH 6 and 25 °C. For the capillarity tests, a method was adapted from standard JIS L 1907—(Testing methods for water absorbency of textiles). Samples were cut into 20 × 2.5 cm strips and 1 cm of this strip was immersed in a solution containing a reactive dye Blue Turquoise Solae GLL. After 10 min, the height of the dye absorbed by capillarity was measured.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
