Abstract

This study investigated the structures and compositions of two types of graphene (GP) produced by the reduction of graphene oxide (GO): GP TR, produced by thermal reduction at 1073 K in N 2; and GP CR, chemically reduced with hyrdazine. GP TR and GP CR have a small number of surface oxide groups with the compositions C 100O 3 ± 1 and C 100O 6.5 ± 2 and consist of six layers and three layers, respectively. The interlayer spaces are slightly larger than those in typical graphene produced by “top-down” exfoliation from graphite. These structures and compositions are intrinsic properties of graphene produced by the “bottom-up” layer-by-layer stacking process.
