Abstract
Experimentally revealed features of thermal and photochemical deoxidation of graphene oxide (GO) in films are reported. A difference in mechanism between the photoreduction and thermal reduction of GO has been shown. The mechanism of photochemical deoxidation of graphene oxide has been rationalized using the concepts of molecular photochemistry. A new model of photoelimination of molecular oxygen from epoxy groups on graphene nanosheet has been proposed. The photoprocesses lead to growing of π-domains of graphene.
