▎ 摘　　要

Functionalization of graphene's two-dimensional sheets can be used to modify the physical properties of graphene, such as changing its conductivity or inducing ferromagnetism, which is of broad interest for a myriad of applications. However, functionalized graphene can possess significant structural disorder that is often overlooked and is difficult to characterize quantitatively. Here we investigate hydrogenated graphene nanopowder (H-Gr) produced by Birch reduction of graphene oxide. By combining complementary x-ray and neutron diffraction, we show how to quantitatively characterize the H-Gr nanostructure, including the hydrogen content. We show that the majority of the H-Gr consists of highly disordered molecular-scale carbon while a small portion of the sample contains few-layered graphene having an expanded interlayer spacing. Modeling the coherent diffuse scattering for both x-ray and neutron diffraction, and comparing it with the incoherent neutron scattering, the hydrogen to carbon ratio was measured and it was determined that most of the hydrogen resides within the disordered carbon rather than in the graphene. Evidence is presented for hydrogen clustering as well as for hydrogen bonded perpendicular to the plane of molecular-carbon bonds. Our quantitative approach to characterizing carbon nanopowders has broad relevance to understanding disorder and bonding of hydrogen in graphitic carbons and other nanomaterials.
