【 摘 要 】
We report the observation of an intense anomalous peak at 1608 cm(-1) in the Raman spectrum of graphene associated with the presence of chromium nanoparticles in contact with graphene. Bombardment with an electron beam demonstrates that this peak is distinct from the well-studied D' peak appearing as defects are created in graphene; this peak is found to be nondispersive. We argue that the bonding of chromium atoms with carbon atoms softens the out-of-plane optical (ZO) phonon mode, in such a way that the frequency of its overtone decreases to 2 omega(ZO) similar to omega(G), where omega(G) = 1585 cm(-1) is the frequency of the Raman-active E-2g mode. Thus, the observed peak is attributed to the 2ZO mode which becomes Raman active following a mechanism known as Fermi resonance. First-principles calculations of the vibrational and anharmonic properties of the graphene/Cr interface support this scenario.
