▎ 摘  要

A combination of ultraviolet and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and first principle calculations was used to study the electronic structure at the interface between the strong molecular acceptor 1,3,4,5,7,8-hexafluorotetracyano-naphthoquinodimethane (F6TCNNQ) and a graphene layer supported on either a quartz or a copper substrate. We find evidence for fundamentally different charge redistribution mechanisms in the two ternary systems, as a consequence of the insulating versus metallic character of the substrates. While electron transfer occurs exclusively from graphene to F(6)TCNNQ on the quartz support (p-doping of graphene), the Cu substrate electron reservoir induces an additional electron density flow to graphene decorated with the acceptor monolayer. Remarkably, graphene on Cu is n-doped and remains n-doped upon F(6)TCNNQ deposition. On both substrates, the work function of graphene increases substantially with a F(6)TCNNQmonolayer atop, the effect being more pronounced (similar to 1.3 eV) on Cu compared to quartz (similar to 1.0 eV) because of the larger electrostatic potential drop associated with the long-distance graphene-mediated Cu-F6TCNNQ electron transfer. We thus provide a means to realize high work function surfaces for both p- and n-type doped graphene.
