Graphene prepared on Cu foil by chemical vapor deposition was studied as a function of post growth cooling conditions. CuO islands embedded in the graphene film were discovered and studied by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. It is shown that nanostructured holes can be formed within a graphene film by reduction using hydrogen cooling immediately after film growth. We also observe the formation of symmetrical oxide islands in these holes. This study provides an easy way to fabricate a graphene + CuO composite, and the method may be extended to other graphene based structures.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 January 2014.
All research outputs
#18,359,382
of 22,738,543 outputs
Outputs from Langmuir
#11,660
of 13,926 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#197,273
of 247,771 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Langmuir
#119
of 131 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,738,543 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,926 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.8. This one is in the 9th percentile – i.e., 9% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 247,771 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 9th percentile – i.e., 9% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 131 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 3rd percentile – i.e., 3% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
