The properties of graphene oxide foils were modified by excimer laser irradiation at different fluences and times. The irradiations were performed in air and in vacuum using a pulsed UV laser operating at 248-nm wavelength and 23-ns pulse duration. Measurements of ablation yield, microscope surface morphology and Raman spectroscopy were performed. The residual surface shows a significant oxygen reduction due to the removing of functional oxygen groups, a thickness reduction due to the removal of graphene layers depending on the used laser shots and a presence of defects in the graphene sheets as evident by the Raman spectroscopy investigation.

Abstract
The properties of graphene oxide foils were modified by excimer laser irradiation at different fluences and times. The irradiations were performed in air and in vacuum using a pulsed UV laser operating at 248-nm wavelength and 23-ns pulse duration. Measurements of ablation yield, microscope surface morphology and Raman spectroscopy were performed. The residual surface shows a significant oxygen reduction due to the removing of functional oxygen groups, a thickness reduction due to the removal of graphene layers depending on the used laser shots and a presence of defects in the graphene sheets as evident by the Raman spectroscopy investigation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
