Recent experiments have shown surprisingly large thermal time constants in suspended graphene ranging from 10 to 100 ns in drums with a diameter ranging from 2 to 7 microns. The large time constants and their scaling with diameter points…
In this study, we describe a new experimental approach based on constant-current scanning tunneling spectroscopy to controllably and reversibly pull freestanding graphene membranes up to 35 nm from their equilibrium height. In addition, we…
Graphene exhibits extraordinary electronic and mechanical properties, and extremely high thermal conductivity. Being a very stable atomically thick membrane that can be suspended between two leads, graphene provides a perfect test platform…
The paper presents evidence of a rather strong correlation of odd electrons in the singlet state of graphene. Due to the correlation, the chemical modification of graphene can be considered following a certain algorithmic computational…
Meyer et al (2007) found that free-standing graphene sheets, just one atom thick, display spontaneous ripples. The ripples are of order 2-20 {\AA} high and 20-200 {\AA} wide. The sheets in which they appear are only one atom thick, and…
We measure the two-dimensional elastic modulus $E^\text{2D}$ of atomically clean defect-engineered graphene with a known defect distribution and density in correlated ultra-high vacuum experiments. The vacancies are introduced via…
A reversible handle on graphene carrier density, other than the gate electric field, is desirable for memory applications of graphene. Our experiments show that the commonly observed carrier density hysteresis in graphene on SiO$_2$ due to…
By combining scanning probe microscopy with Raman and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopies, we investigate the evolution of CVD-grown graphene/Ge(001) as a function of the deposition temperature in close proximity to the Ge melting point,…
Generation-recombination interband transitions via acoustic phonons are allowed in a disordered graphene because of violation of the energy-momentum conservation requirements. The generation-recombination processes are analyzed for the case…
The interaction of interfacial water with graphitic carbon at the atomic scale is studied as a function of the hydrophobicity of epitaxial graphene. High resolution X-ray reflectivity shows that the graphene-water contact angle is…
In this work, a thermal rectification ratio $\eta$ of 18.5% was observed in partially perforated graphene with the use of Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations. In all cases studied here, heat preferentially flows from the porous to the…
Stacking two graphene layers twisted by the 'magic angle' $\theta \approx 1.1^\circ$ generates flat energy bands, which in turn catalyzes various strongly correlated phenomena depending on filling and sample details. At charge neutrality,…
Grazing incidence fast atom diffraction at crystal surfaces (GIFAD or FAD) has demonstrated coherent diffraction both at effective energies close to one eV ($\lambda_\perp\approx$ 14 pm for He) and at elevated surface temperatures offering…
The interfacial abruptness and uniformity in heterostructures are critical to control their electronic and optical properties. With this perspective, this work demonstrates the 3-D atomistic-level mapping of the roughness and uniformity of…
We analyze the thermal fluctuations of a narrow graphene nanoribbon. Using a continuum, membrane-like model we study the height-height correlation functions and the destabilization modes corresponding to two different boundaries conditions:…
Thermo-osmotic flows, generated by applying a thermal gradient along a liquid-solid interface, could be harnessed to convert waste heat into electricity. While this phenomenon has been known for almost a century, there is a crucial need to…
Patterned graphene shows substantial potential for applications in future molecular-scale integrated electronics. Environmental effects are a critical issue in a single layer material where every atom is on the surface. Especially…
We adopt the GW approximation and random phase approximation to study finite temperature effects on the inelastic mean free path and quasiparticle lifetime by directly calculating the imaginary part of the finite temperature self-energy…
Thermal boundary conductance (TBC) at dissimilar interfaces imposes a fundamental limit on electronic device performance, yet predicting and understanding heat transport across realistic, disordered boundaries remains elusive. Here, we…
We present a thermodynamic theory of plane coherent solid-solid interfaces in multicomponent systems subject to nonhydrostatic mechanical stresses. The interstitial and substitutional chemical components are treated separately using…
