A last question : why no-doping for n=3 in alcohol ?
Substrate mediated doping !
Substrate mediated doping
by silanol groups
Si–O–Si + Alcohol → Si–O–H
Si–O–H groups as e- donors
Lee et al. J. Phys. Chem. C Lett. 111, 12504 (2007)
Conclusions
• Adhesion or unbinding decides on the
graphene pressure behavior (2D vs 3D)
• Adhesion/unbinding transition observed
between n=2 and n=3 (n =2 is different !!)
• Extreme surface P-mediated doping in alcohol
in the adhesive configuration
Applications: pressure/stress sensors
