By varying the sample temperature from 20 to 200oC as well as the XeF2 pressure in the reactor stage from 0.1 to 4 Torr, the chemical attachment of fluorine on graphene is identified from a comprehensive FT-IR study performed under under industrial conditions. Fluorine attached out of plane can be easily differentiated from fluorine attached at edges (i.e. remaining within the basal plane) and terminating the edge atoms.
