摘要
This paper reports an STM study of all stages of the intercalation of oxygen at the interface of a strongly coupled graphene/Ni(111) system prepared by temperature programmed growth (TPG) method. We have found that at the first stage of the intercalation at 120 degrees C, oxygen forms a chemisorbed layer on Ni(111) with a coverage about 0.26-0.28 ML, approximately described by the compressed p(2 x 2) lattice. The second stage of the intercalation is the formation of a single NiO(100) layer visualized in STM images as a specific 'square' superstructure at the graphene/Ni(111) interface. It was also established that the rate of the oxygen intercalation at 250 degrees C is much higher than at 120 degrees C. After intercalation at 250 degrees C, STM also reveals the formation of regions with 'free-standing' graphene, associated with the presence of a double nickel oxide layer underneath.
