Abstract

We used ultrafast surface plasmon polariton (SPP) pulses that were focused into several tens of nm at the apex of a tapered metal tip to induce photoreduction of graphene oxide (GO), and we successfully fabricated nano graphene stripes with a minimum width of ∼200 nm. GO was reduced using about 1010 shots of SPP pulse irradiation. We evaluated the GO reduction with selective in situ coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering measurements using spectrally focused SPP pulses.
