Official URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.carbon.2008.09.045 AbstractSeveral nanometer-thick graphene oxide films deposited on silicon nitride-on silicon substrates were exposed to nine different heat treatments (three in Argon, three in Argon and Hydrogen, and three in ultra-high vacuum), and also a film was held at 70 degrees C while being exposed to a vapor from hydrazine monohydrate. The films were characterized with atomic force microscopy to obtain local thickness and variation in thickness over extended regions. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy was used to measure significant reduction of the oxygen content of the films; heating in ultra-high vacuum was particularly effective. The overtone region of the Raman spectrum was used, for the first time, to provide a "fingerprint" of changing oxygen content.
