Abstract
The reduction of graphene oxide is one of the most facile methods to fabricate a large amount of graphene. The reduction rate is generally examined by various spectroscopic techniques, but each technique is applied for different purposes. Herein, we demonstrate the correlation between spectroscopic results and magnetic data, which plays an important role in determining the quality of reduced graphene oxides. The magnetic signals are related with the carbon-oxygen functional groups analyzed by spectroscopic tools. Especially, highly reduced sample exhibits the diamagnetic property similar to graphene-like materials. This report can provide an insight to determine the reduction rate of graphene oxides by using simple magnetic measurements.
