| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We immobilized the graphene derivatives, Graphene Oxide (GO), on the hydrogen-terminated Si(111) surface. Because of the gas barrier properties, the immobilized sheets are expected to be the protective coating against the surface oxidation, which forms the insulating silicon oxide layer. In this study, we studied graphene derivatives/Si interfaces by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and electrochemical measurements. The preserved conductivity and electrochemical properties clearly showed the barrier properties of the sheet against oxidation.
