Abstract
The presented article is devoted to the synthesis and analysis of flakes graphene oxide obtained by the Hammers method. The synthesized flakes graphene oxide was studied using SEM, EDX, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, element analysis, temperature dependent of resistance and IR spectroscopy. As a result of calculating the results of X-ray analysis according to the Debye-Scherer’s formula, the thickness of graphite flakes was about 12,9nm and the number of layers was 38. The result of the Raman analysis show that high quality flakes grapheme oxide was obtained. Based on the result of elementary analysis of grapheme oxide mass, the C/O ratio was determined to be 1,42. The grapheme layers inside the sample were 3,31nm thick and 14,8nm long by scanning electron microscope. The temperature variation of the resistance was determined. IR spectroscopy shows the results of the absorption of electromagnetic radiation in the infrared range by atomic groups of reduced grapheme oxide and the excitation of the molecule by light quanta. When a molecule is irradiated with infrared radiation, it is shown that only quantum absorption quantities are formed according to the frequencies of the molecules.
