Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for measuring a distance between a graphite and a metal surface based on a spectrometer and a conductive atomic force microscope. By using a phenomenon that a graphene-metal junction can emit light in an atmosphere environment at a particular voltage, with the cooperation of the spectrometer and the conductive atomic force microscope, the control of probe movement is realized, corresponding voltage is measured, the average value of Delta EF is extracted, according to the corresponding relation between the Delta EF and d, the distance d between the graphite at a light emitting point and the metal surface is obtained, and finally the distance distribution map of samples is obtained.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of micro-nano devices, and in particular relates to a method for measuring the distance between graphene and a metal surface based on a spectrometer and a conductive atomic force microscope. Background technique

[0002] It is of scientific and technical value to understand the contact characteristics of graphene and metal. For the energy band structure at the contact, the surface distance between the two is an important parameter (Xia, Fengnian, et al. "The origins and limits of metal-graphene junction resistance." Nature nanotechnology6.3( 2011): 179-184.). The undulation of graphene surface (Giovannetti, G., etal."Dopinggraphenewithmetalcontacts."PhysicalReviewLetters101.2(2008): 026803.) and the roughness of metal surface (Wintterlin, Joost, andM-L.Bocquet."Grapheneonmetalsurfaces."SurfaceScience603. 10(2009):1841-1852) makes the spacing variable in spatial distribution, and it is difficult for the exis...
