Electrostatic force and Raman spectroscopy measurements on graphene replicating water layers on mica — •Vitalij Scenev, Philipp Lange, Nikolai Severin, and Jürgen P. Rabe — Institut für Physik, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Berlin, Deutschland

Recently it has been argued that graphenes exfoliated onto mica become hole-doped by the substrate and that the doping level can be blocked by molecular water interlayers confined during sample preparation [1]. We use Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM), Electrostatic Force Microscopy (EFM) and Raman Spectroscopy to investigate both the structure and the electronic properties of graphene conforming to molecular water layers on the mica surface. The layers are fluid, since variation of ambient humidity allows to control in-situ the layer thicknesses in the range of a monolayer [2]. Our data imply that graphene is hole-doped by the water layers with the doping level increasing with the water layer thickness.
