- SFG spectroscopy and density functional theory are used to detect fractions of monolayers of hydrogen on graphene and identify adsorption patterns. The latter was performed in a new collaboration with Prof Feng at Hunan/China, allowing a more robust analysis of the spectra. This paper has led to the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) and the laser manufacturer Ekspla providing letters of support for a follow-on EPSRC proposal. NPL are interested in correlating the degree of hydrogen adsorption with the created band gap, and SFG could pave the way as a novel, non-invasive metrology tool for graphene.
