ICS 07.120 is a classification code in the International Classification for Standards (ICS) system. It covers "Nanotechnologies". The ICS is a hierarchical classification system used to organize international, regional, and national standards, facilitating the search and identification of standards across different fields.
There are 415 standards classified under ICS 07.120 (Nanotechnologies). These standards are published by international and regional standardization bodies including ISO, IEC, CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI.
The International Classification for Standards (ICS) is a hierarchical classification system maintained by ISO to organize standards and related documents. It uses a three-level structure with field (2 digits), group (3 digits), and sub-group (2 digits) codes. The ICS helps users find standards by subject area and enables statistical analysis of standards development activities.

IEC TS 62607-6-36:2026, which is a Technical Specification, establishes a standardized method to determine the key control characteristic
• reduction status
for graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) by
• ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis).
The reduction status is not a quantitative value, but rather a compilation (table) of six parameters extracted from UV-Vis absorption spectra. These six parameters can be obtained from GO and rGO as follows:
(1) the peak location of GO, (2) the shoulder peak of GO, (3) the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the main absorption peak of GO, (4) the peak location of rGO, (5) FWHM of the main absorption peak of rGO and (6) the spectral peak shifts between GO and rGO.
• The method is applicable to the characterization of GO and rGO materials (where rGO is obtained from the corresponding GO) produced by different reduction techniques, as well as to commercial products in solution or film form.
• Individual GO or rGO materials can also be characterized, but only partial parameters can be obtained. Specifically, peak location, FWHM, and shoulder peak can be measured from each GO or rGO material, while peak shift requires both GO and its corresponding rGO for comparison.
• The method is suitable for quality assurance and for monitoring the reduction process during the production of rGO.
• The method does not provide full chemical analysis. Complementary techniques can be required beyond the UV-Vis spectral features.

• defect density (%, nm2)
of single layer graphene films by
• electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS in transmission electron microscopy (TEM)).
This document outlines a method for quantitative measurement of defects in graphene at the nanoscale.
The method specified in this document is applicable to single layer graphene acquired via chemical vapour deposition (CVD), roll-to-roll production and exfoliated graphene flakes to estimate the defect density.
In order to obtain reliable data, it is essential that the procedure is consistent for each specified condition from the preparation of the TEM specimen to its observation. It is essential to maintain the spatial resolution below 1 nm by alignment of the beam. The dispersion value, which covers the entire energy loss near edge structure (ELNES) region of the carbon-K edge and maintains the highest energy resolution corresponds to 0,1 eV/ch. Defects in graphene are determined by measuring the spectral differences between sp2 hybridized and sp2/sp3 hybridized atoms, which are obtained by calculating the amplitude ratio of the π* and σ* orbital spectra.

IEC TS 62607-6-28:2025, which is a Technical Specification, establishes two standardized methods to determine the key control characteristic
• number of layers
for graphene layers by
• Raman spectroscopy.
This document presents two complementary methods for determining the number of layers in graphene-related products: Method A, which analyzes the lineshape of the 2D-peak in the Raman spectrum, and Method B, which measures the Raman intensity from the underlying silicon substrate. The two methods can be employed individually but combining both methods enhances accuracy and extends the detection range for the number of layers and stacking configurations.
- The method is intended to be used for graphene layers prepared by mechanical exfoliation, but also can be used with care for other high quality graphene layers, such as graphene layers prepared by chemical vapor deposition.
- The method can be used for graphene layers with AB and ABC stacking on a substrate. Its lateral size should be at least 2 µm.
- Method A is effective for AB stacked graphene up to 4 layers but becomes less reliable with more layers due to peak overlap.
- Method B can detect up to 10 layers in AB and ABC stacking but oxidized silicon substrate (SiO2 on silicon substrate) is required.
- The comparison of Method A and Method B can be found in Annex A.

IEC 62607-8-4:2024 specifies a measurement protocol to determine the key control characteristic
- activation energy of electronic trap states
for metal-oxide interfacial devices by
- low-frequency-noise spectroscopy
The noise spectra peak temperatures are obtained within a designated temperature range. Activation energies are then calculated based on the frequency dependence of the peak temperatures to analyse the energy levels associated with the electronic trap states. The activation energy is determined by the temperature dependence of the capture time at electron traps under the assumption that it is described by an Arrhenius function.
- In metal-oxide interfacial devices, electrical conductance is observed through an oxide nanolayer sandwiched between metal electrodes.
- The size of the conductive path in metal-oxide interfacial devices is dependent on the current value and is usually nanoscale in diameter, taking the form of a filamentary wire. This evaluation method is useful for analysing the electronic trap states in nanowires and other miniaturized devices that have nanolayers.
