Résumé:

Graphite Intercalation Compounds have been the subject of intensive research. With the rise of graphene, new opportunities emerge in the field. On the one hand, adsorption and/or intercalation of hetero-atoms offer a gateway to tune graphene properties. On the other hand, investigations on a simpler system open the way towards increasing knowledge on the intercalant/host physical properties. New questions to be addressed also arise, such as, what happens when the number of layers is reduced? We have developed a setup derived from the two zone vapor transport method used to produce graphite intercalation compounds. It allows performing in situ Raman experiments during graphene doping by alkali vapor. The results obtained on the evolutions of the G and 2D bands during rubidium doping of graphene and bilayer graphene will be presented and discussed.
