RESUMO
In the presented paper, we studied bilayer CVD graphene transferred to a langasite substrate and irradiated with a focused electron beam through a layer of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). Changes in the Raman spectra and an increase in the electrical resistance of bigraphene after irradiation indicate a local phase transition associated with graphene diamondization. The results are explained in the framework of the theory of a chemically induced phase transition of bilayer graphene to diamane, which can be associated with the release of hydrogen and oxygen atoms from PMMA and langasite due to the "knock-on" effect, respectively, upon irradiation of the structure with an electron beam. Theoretical calculations of the modified structure of bigraphene on langasite and the experimental evaluation of sp3-hybridized carbon fraction indicate the formation of diamane nanoclusters in the bigraphene irradiated regions. This result can be considered as the first realization of local tunable bilayer graphene diamondization.
RESUMO
The possibility of creating resonant ultraviolet (UV) sensors based on the structure of ZnO nanorods/La3Ga5SiO14 microbalance (LCM) has been investigated. The principle of sensor operation is based on the desorption of oxygen from the surface of ZnO nanorods upon irradiation with UV light and an increase in the concentration of charge carriers that leads to an increase in the capacitance of the structure of ZnO nanorods/LCM. It has been shown that UV radiation intensity affects the resonance oscillation frequency of the LCM sensor. After the end of irradiation, the reverse process of oxygen adsorption on the surface of ZnO nanorods occurs, and the resonance frequency of the sensor oscillations returns to the initial value.
