Angle-resolved polarized Raman spectroscopy for distinguishing stage-I graphite intercalation compounds with Thorium, Uranium and Plutonium
Abstract
Graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) with the geometrical anisotropy and strong electron-phonon coupling are in full swing and have shown their great potential for applications in nanodevices. I selected representative three elements in actinide group with valence electron arrangement: Thorium (Th) ([Rn]6d27s2), Uranium (U) ([Rn]5f36d17s2), Plutonium (Pu) ([Rn]5f67s2). I calculated their phonon spectra and demonstrated the atomic-scale microstructure identification of actinide graphite intercalation compounds by angle-resolved polarized Raman spectroscopy.
