It is found that the radiation exposure results in two-dimensional (2D) and G band position evolution with the layer number increasing and D and D~ bands rising, suggesting the presence of defects and related crystal lattice deformation in graphene. Bi-layer graphene is more stable than mono- and tri-layer graphene, indicating that the former is a better candidate in the application of radiation environments. Also, the DC electrical property of the mono-layer graphene device shows that the defects increase the carrier density.展开更多
