▎ 摘  要

Graphene has been widely explored as an ideal platform for gas sensing owing to exceptional properties, such as its atom-thin two-dimensional conjugated structure and large specific surface area. Herein, we report that, by introducing covalent C-F bonds via site-selective ion-beam-induced fluorination, graphene sensing response to ammonia gas can be considerably improved due to the enhanced gas adsorption on the surface of fluorinated graphene. The response to the ammonia gas increased by a factor of eight together with the limit of detection approaching 65 ppb. The absorption kinetics between the ammonia gas and fluorinated graphene were analyzed by using the Langmuir isotherm model and the result shows that the enhanced sensitivity is mainly attributed to the strong binding energy of fluorinated graphene to ammonia gas molecules, which is consistent with previous theoretical predictions.
