摘要

Abstract

for the first time

report the nanoscopic imaging study of anomalous infrared (IR) phonon enhancement of bilayer graphene

originated from the charge imbalance between the top and bottom layers

resulting in the enhancement of E

mode of bilayer graphene near 0.2 eV. We modified the multifrequency atomic force microscope platform to combine photo-induced force microscope with electrostatic/Kelvin probe force microscope constituting a novel hybrid nanoscale optical-electrical force imaging system. This enables to observe a correlation between the IR response

doping level

and topographic information of the graphene layers. Through the nanoscale spectroscopic image measurements

we demonstrate that the charge imbalance at the graphene interface can be controlled by chemical (doping effect via Redox mechanism) and mechanical (triboelectric effect by the doped cantilever) approaches. Moreover

we can also diagnosis the subsurface cracks on the stacked few-layer graphene at nanoscale

by monitoring the strain-induced IR phonon shift. Our approach provides new insights into the development of graphene-based electronic and photonic devices and their potential applications.
