We propose a mechanism to control the interaction between adsorbates on graphene. The interaction between a pair of adsorbates---the change in adsorption energy of one adsorbate in the presence of another---is dominated by the interaction mediated by graphenes pi-electrons and has two distinct regimes. Ab initio density functional, numerical tight-binding, and analytical calculations are used to develop the theory. We demonstrate that the interaction can be tuned in a wide range by adjusting the adsorbate-graphene bonding or the chemical potential.

We formulate the theory of the perturbation caused by an adsorbate upon the substrate lattice in terms of a local modification of the interatomic potential energy around the adsorption site, which leads to the relaxation of substrate atoms. We apply
the approach to CO chemisorption on close-packed metal surfaces, and show that the adsorbate-adsorbate interaction and a variety of other properties can be well described by a simple model.
We show that strong coupling between graphene and the substrate is mitigated when 0.8 monolayer of Na is adsorbed and consolidated on top graphene-on-Ni(111). Specifically, the {pi} state is partially restored near the K-point and the energy gap betw
een the {pi} and {pi}* states reduced to 1.3 eV after adsorption, as measured by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We show that this change is not caused by intercalation of Na to underneath graphene but it is caused by an electronic coupling between Na on top and graphene. We show further that graphene can be decoupled to a much higher extent when Na is intercalated to underneath graphene. After intercalation, the energy gap between the {pi} and {pi}* states is reduced to 0 eV and these states are identical as in freestanding and n-doped graphene. We conclude thus that two mechanisms of decoupling exist: a strong decoupling through intercalation, which is the same as one found using noble metals, and a weak decoupling caused by electronic interaction with the adsorbate on top.
We show that the observed repulsive interaction between CO molecules on the Pt(111) surface can be explained by the coupling of the Pt--CO separation with Pt-Pt coordinates in the substrate. The observed long range of the interaction and the non-mono
tonic distance dependence are reproduced. The magnitude of the multiphonon decay of the Pt--CO vibration calculated in this model is also in agreement with experiment.
In recent years, various doping methods for epitaxial graphene have been demonstrated through atom substitution and adsorption. Here we observe by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) a coupling-induced Dirac cone renormalization when de
positing small amounts of Ti onto epitaxial graphene on SiC. We obtain a remarkably high doping efficiency and a readily tunable carrier velocity simply by changing the amount of deposited Ti. First-principles theoretical calculations show that a strong lateral (non-vertical) orbital coupling leads to an efficient doping of graphene by hybridizing the 2pz orbital of graphene and the 3d orbitals of the Ti adsorbate, which attached on graphene without creating any trap/scattering states. This Ti-induced hybridization is adsorbate-specific and has major consequences for efficient doping as well as applications towards adsorbate-induced modification of carrier transport in graphene.
We used residual gas analysis (RGA) to identify the species desorbed during field emission (FE) from a carbon nanotube (CNT) fiber. The RGA data show a sharp threshold for H2 desorption at an external field strength that coincides with a breakpoint i
n the FE data. A comprehensive model for the gradual transition of FE from adsorbate-enhanced CNTs at low bias to FE from CNTs with reduced H2 adsorbate coverage at high bias is developed which accounts for the gradual desorption of the H2 adsorbates, alignment of the CNTs at the fiber tip, and importance of self-heating effects with applied bias.
