Abstract
A new method for chemically modifying highly oriented pyrolytic graphi te based on the catalytic oxidation of the surface with platinum as th e catalyst is proposed. The method makes it possible only to modify th e outer layer of the crystalline lattice without destroying it. As a r esult, a great number of ''point'' defects appear on the outer surface of the crystal, which are uniformly distributed on the surface with h igh density.
