Microscopic Properties of Graphite Intercalation Compounds

  • Chapter
Graphite Intercalation Compounds I

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Materials Science ((SSMATERIALS,volume 14))

Abstract

In this chapter we review the subject of microstructural properties in the graphite intercalation compounds (GICs). GICs, obtained by intercalating various atomic or molecular species into the van der Waals galleries between the host graphite crystalline layers, are not expected to exist with perfect single-crystalline structures. Microstructure in GICs is generally unavoidable for the following reasons: (1) the finite lateral extent of the intercalant layers associated with the staging phenomenon, (2) the multiphase nature of the in-plane structures due to quenching from the elevated intercalation temperature (even if thermal equilibrium has been reached at the intercalation temperature) to the observation temperature, and (3) the inherent defects from the host graphite crystals and the defects resulting from “incomplete” annealing. Other factors, such as intercalant disproportionation, stoichiometric variation, incomplete intercalation, and partial desorption, further complicate the microstructure.
