▎ 摘　　要

We examine local electrostatic force distribution of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film surface before and after transferring graphene in order to compare the influence of local electrostatic interaction between graphene and PET film in terms of the sheet resistance value of deposited graphene. By using the electrical modulation of amplitude in a tapping mode AFM tip, we can obtain the distinguished electrostatic force amplitude mapping of graphene. We determine that different electrostatic attractive interactions between Au-coated tip and bare PET are present and the observed difference can affect the graphene formation and electrical performance, which correlates with the sheet resistance difference.
