▎ 摘　　要

Ordered graphene nanodisk arrays have been successfully fabricated by combining nanosphere lithography and reactive ion etching (RIE) processes. The dimension of graphene nanodisks can be effectively tuned by varying the size of polystyrene spheres, which function as masks during RIE. Low-voltage scanning electron microscopy shows that the graphene sheet could be readily patterned into periodic disklike nanostructures by oxygen RIE. Raman mapping and spectroscopy further visualize such nanodisk arrays and reveal that the nature of disks are crystalline single layer graphene. This work demonstrates an efficient and manageable way to pattern graphene. By consideration of the periodicity, nanometer dimension, and high edge density compared to large-area graphene sheets, graphene nanodisk arrays, such two-dimensional assembly of carbon atoms, offer intrisic advantages in various electronic and spintronic fabrications.
