Since graphene, a single sheet of graphite, has all of its carbon atoms on the surface, its property is very sensitive to materials contacting the surface. Herein, we report novel Raman peaks ob-served in annealed graphene and elucidate…

Suspended graphene is difficult to image by scanning probe microscopy due to the inherent van-der-Waals and dielectric forces exerted by the tip which are not counteracted by a substrate. Here, we report scanning tunneling microscopy data…
Wang [Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 219801 (2009)] makes the following points about our Letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 067801 (2009), arXiv:0805.0679]: (1) He infers that, "contrary to its title, shear banding emerged from monotonic curves only if…
Continuum atomic relaxation models for twisted bilayer graphene involve minimization of the sum of intralayer elastic energy and interlayer adhesion energy. The elastic energy favors a rigid twist i.e. no distortion in the twisted honeycomb…
We study the electronic properties of h-BN/graphene/h-BN ABC-stacked trilayer systems using tight binding and DFT methods. We comment on the recent work of Ramasubramaniam et al. (arxiv:1011.2489) whose results seem to be in disagreement…
The deformation and fracture behaviour of one-atom-thick mechanically exfoliated graphene has been studied in detail. Monolayer graphene flakes with different lengths, widths and shapes were successfully prepared by mechanical exfoliation…
Using atomistic simulations we determine the roughness and the thermal properties of a suspended graphane sheet. As compared to graphene we found that hydrogenated graphene has: 1) a larger thermal contraction, 2) the roughness exponent at…
In-situ high pressure Raman spectroscopy is used to study monolayer, bilayer and few-layer graphene samples supported on silicon in a diamond anvil cell to 3.5 GPa. The results show that monolayer graphene adheres to the silicon substrate…

In the letter "Phys. Rev. Lett 104, 196804 (2010)" the compression-relaxation mechanism (CRM) for a graphene sheet (GS) was reported to be irreversible and resulted in static ripples on GS, such that for T <Tc the free-energy of the rippled…

A methodology is presented here for deriving true experimental axial stress-strain curves in both tension and compression for monolayer graphene through the shift of the 2D Raman peak that is present in all graphitic materials. The…
Pristine monolayer graphene exhibits very poor screening because the density of states vanishes at the Dirac point. As a result, charge relaxation is controlled by the effects of zero-point motion (rather than by the Coulomb interaction)…
In a recent paper [Phys. Rev. B 78, 113407 (2008)], Poncharal et al. studied the Raman spectra of misoriented bilayer graphene. They found that the blueshift of 2D band of misoriented graphene relative to that of single layer graphene shows…
