Abstract:
Experimental data for water adsorption on CVD (chemical vapor deposition) graphene/SiO2 and graphene/Cu studied under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions are discussed, focusing on support effects and hydrophobicity. Under UHV, it seems that graphene wettability is inversely related to wetting properties of the support. Graphene is not transparent to water wetting on the supports studied here.
