In this work, we study the Raman spectra of twisted bilayer graphene samples as a function of their twist-angles ($\theta$), ranging from 0.03$^\circ$ to 3.40$^\circ$, where local $\theta$ are determined by analysis of their associated…

Edges naturally exist in a single-layer graphene sample. Similarly, individual graphene layers in a multilayer graphene sample contribute their own edges. We study the Raman spectrum at the edge of a graphene layer laid on n layer graphene…
