The formation of graphen-nanotube composites addresses a few basic problems. First, both partners are good donors and acceptors of electrons, which significantly complicates the intermolecular interaction between them leading to a two-well…

Doped graphene sheets are pseudochiral two-dimensional Fermi liquids with abnormal electron-electron interaction physics. We address graphene's Fermi liquid properties quantitatively using a microscopic random-phase-approximation theory and…

Graphene is one of the stiffest known materials, with a Young's modulus of 1 TPa, making it an ideal candidate for use as a reinforcement in high-performance composites. However, being a one-atom thick crystalline material, graphene poses…

We use density functional theory to determine the equilibrium shape of graphene flakes, through the calculation of the edge orientation dependence of the edge energy and edge stress of graphene nanoribbons. The edge energy is a nearly…

The wetting of solid surfaces can be manoeuvred by altering the energy balance at the interfacial region. While electric field acts favourably to spread a droplet on a rigid surface, this tendency may be significantly suppressed over soft…

Effects of graphene oxide nanomaterials addition and oxidation level on ignition delay and burning rate of ethanol droplets are experimentally investigated. Three graphene oxide samples are synthesized and characterized. Separate high-speed…

The influence of a topological defect in graphene on the ground state of electronic quasiparticle excitations is studied in the framework of the long-wavelength continuum model originating in the tight-binding approximation for the nearest…

We consider a discrete model of a graphene sheet with atomic interactions governed by a harmonic approximation of the 2nd-generation Brenner potential that depends on bond lengths, bond angles, and two types of dihedral angles. A continuum…

We study the formation of wrinkles in graphene upon wet transfer onto a target substrate, whereby draining of water appears to play an important role. We are able to control the orientation of the wrinkles by tuning the surface morphology.…

The difficulty in determining the mass of a sample increases as its size diminishes. At the nanoscale, there are no direct methods for resolving the mass of single molecules or nanoparticles and so more sophisticated approaches based on…

The main features of the conductivity of doped single layer graphene are analyzed, and models for different scattering mechanisms are presented.

Since the discovery of graphene, its excellent physical properties has greatly improved the performance of many optoelectronic devices and brought important technological revolution to optical research and application. Here, we introduce…

We examine the fracture mechanics of tearing graphene. We present a molecular dynamics simulation of the propagation of cracks in clamped, free-standing graphene as a function of the out-of-plane force. The geometry is motivated by…

In this chapter, semi-analytical models for the calculation of the quantum capacitance of both monolayer and bilayer graphene and its nanoribbons, are presented. Since electron-hole puddles are experimental facts in all graphene samples,…

Single-layer graphene structures and devices are commonly defined using reactive ion etching and plasma etching with O2 or Ar as the gaseous etchants. Although optical microscopy and Raman spectroscopy are widely used to determine the…

A recent experimental study showed that an induced folded flap of graphene can spontaneously drive itself its tearing and peeling off a substrate, thus producing long, micrometer sized, regular trapezoidal-shaped folded graphene…

Graphene nanoribbons' electronic transport properties strongly depend on the type of edge, armchair, zigzag or other, and on edge functionalization that can be used for band-gap engineering. For only partly hydrogenated edges interesting…

Isolated, atomically thin conducting membranes of graphite, called graphene, have recently been the subject of intense research with the hope that practical applications in fields ranging from electronics to energy science will emerge.…

In order to take advantage of the enormous potential of graphene for future electronic micro-circuits and other applications it is necessary to develop reliable, rapid and widely applicable methods to visualize graphene based structures. We…

Chemically doped graphene could support plasmon excitations up to telecommunication or even visible frequencies. Apart from that, the presence of dopant may influence electron scattering mechanisms in graphene and thus impact the plasmon…
