Fluorographene: Two Dimensional Counterpart of Teflon

We report a stoichiometric derivative of graphene with a fluorine atom attached to each carbon. Raman, optical, structural, micromechanical and transport studies show that the material is qualitatively different from the known graphene-based nonstoichiometric derivatives. Fluorographene is a high-quality insulator (resistivity >10^12 Ohm per square) with an optical gap of 3 eV. It inherits the mechanical strength of graphene, exhibiting Young's modulus of 100 N/m and sustaining strains of 15%. Fluorographene is inert and stable up to 400C even in air, similar to Teflon.

Anisotropy of x-ray scattering in aligned nanotube structures

Effects of orientational x-ray scattering have been experimentally examined in a film of vertically aligned multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNs). Additional contribution to the x-ray fluorescence intensity was revealed at angles close to the film normal. Theoretical considerations suggest the intensity enhancement to be caused by propagation of C K$_α$-radiation mainly along the channels of CNs.

Electron-electron interaction in multiwall carbon nanotubes

Magnetic susceptibility $χ$ of pristine and brominated arc-produced sample of multiwall carbon nanotubes was measured from 4.2 to 400 K. An additional contribution $Δχ(T)$ to diamagnetic susceptibility $χ(T)$ of carbon nanotubes was found at T $<$ 50 K for both samples. It is shown that $Δχ(T)$ are dominated by quantum correction to $χ$ for interaction electrons (interaction effects-IE). The IE shows a crossover from two-dimensional to three-dimensional at $B$ = 5.5 T. The effective interaction between electrons for interior layers of nanotubes are repulsion and the electron-electron interaction $λ$$_c$ was estimated to be $λ_c\sim $ 0.26.
