Sequential ozone short-exposure cycles resulted in increasing the $p$ doping levels as inferred from the blue shift of the 2$D$ and $G$ peak frequencies, without introducing significant disorder. The two-phonon 2$D$ and 2$D'$ Raman peak intensities show a significant decrease, while, on the contrary, the one-phonon G Raman peak intensity remains constant for the whole exposure process. The former reflects the dynamics of the photoexcited electrons (holes) and, specifically, the increase of the electron-electron scattering rate with doping. From the ratio of 2$D$ to 2$D$ intensities, which remains constant with doping, we could extract the ratio of electron-phonon coupling parameters. This ratio is found independent on the number of layers up to ten layers. Moreover, the rate of decrease of 2$D$ and 2$D'$ intensities with doping was found to slowdown inversely proportional to the number of graphene layers, revealing the increase of the electron-electron collision probability.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-05-13T10:43:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "63.20.kd", "63.22.Rc", "78.30.-j", "78.67.Wj" ], "keywords": [ "electron-phonon coupling", "raman spectroscopy", "ozone-doped graphene", "ozone short-exposure cycles", "raman peak intensity remains constant" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1103/PhysRevB.82.075422", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2010, "month": "Aug", "volume": 82, "number": 7, "pages": "075422" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010PhRvB..82g5422A" } } }
