Abstract

Data of Raman spectroscopy from graphene and few-layer graphene (FLG) irradiated by SEM electron beam in the range of energies 0.2 -30 keV are presented. The obvious effect of damaging the nanostructures by all used beam energies for specimens placed on insulator substrates (<TEX>$SiO_2$</TEX>) was revealed. At the same time, no signs of structural defects were observed in the cases when FLG have been arranged on metallic substrate. A new physical mechanism of under threshold energy defect production supposing possible formation of intensive electrical charged puddles on insulator substrate surface is suggested.
