Graphene-Assisted Magnetic Iron Carbide Nanoparticle Growth

Abstract: Iron carbide nanoparticles (NPs) encapsulated by multilayer graphene, Fe3C@graphene, were produced by one-step chemical vapor deposition (CVD) at high temperature (950 °C) with ferrocene powder as a precursor and a copper foil surface as a catalyst. At high temperature, the ferrocene molecules adsorb dissociatively on copper catalysts, forming a layer of graphene decorated by core–shell Fe3C@graphene NPs. At high temperature, graphene has a low surface energy, allowing the lateral diffusion of iron atoms and c… Show more

“…The binding energy of 401.1 eV in the N 1s XPS spectra (Figure S7c) can be assigned to NH–C on ferrocenylmethyl-dimethylammonium nitrate, and the binding energy of the N atom on NO 3 – appears to be 406.4 eV. More importantly, as shown in Figure b, two obvious peaks appear in the Fe 2p XPS spectrum, corresponding to the Fe 2p 3/2 peak at 708.3 eV and Fe 2p 1/2 peak at 720.8 eV; these peaks are similar to those corresponding to an iron carbide nanoparticle–graphene composite reported in the literature . These findings illustrated that GO–FcMANO 3 composite materials were successfully synthesized.…”

“…Raman spectroscopy can provide further insight on the structure of the graphite-encapsulated nanoparticles ( Figure 2c ) and on the graphene flakes ( Figure 2d ) present in the composite material MGH-600. Both spectra bear the characteristic graphene D (~1,332 cm −1 ) and G (~1,585 cm −1 ) bands assigned to disorder/defects and C sp 2 , but the spectrum of the encapsulated nanoparticles exhibits in the range 200–600 cm −1 the iron carbide and/or zero valent iron peaks, with the latter possibly being overlapped by the former (Liu et al, 2014 ; Alahmadi and Siaj, 2018 ). Moreover, the spectrum of the graphene flake reveals a symmetrically shaped 2D peak (~2,666 cm −1 ) implying few layered graphene flakes.…”

“…It would be interesting to apply this type of studies to other plasmonic materials that are well-known, such as silver, copper, palladium, and aluminum [39,40,43] in order to have the influence of the nature of the plasmonic material on the LSPR shift in high pressure environment. We can extend this investigation type to other alternative plasmonic materials, such as transition-metal nitride nanoparticles [44], transparent conductive oxides [46], and iron carbide nanoparticles encapsulated by graphene [99], which are materials at lower costs having a better temperature stability. Moreover, the domain of the nanoplasmonics in high pressure environment can be applied to sensing of analytes, pollutants in high pressure media as the marine medium, for instance.…”
