Graphene is expected to be rather insensitive to ionizing particle radiation. We demonstrate that single layers of exfoliated graphene sustain significant damage from irradiation with slow highly charged ions. We have investigated the ion…
The ability to manufacture tailored graphene nanostructures is a key factor to fully exploit its enormous technological potential. We have investigated nanostructures created in graphene by swift heavy ion induced folding. For our…
Defects in the lattice are of primal importance to tune graphene chemical, thermal and electronic properties. Electron-beam irradiation is an easy method to induce defects in graphene following pre-designed patterns, but no systematic study…
We have studied the effect of photoelectrons on defect formation in graphene during extreme ultraviolet (EUV) irradiation. Assuming the major role of these low energy electrons, we have mimicked the process by using low energy primary…
Chemical, mechanical, thermal and/or electronic properties of bulk or low-dimensional materials can be engineered by introducing structural defects to form novel functionalities. When using particles irradiation, these defects can be…
Graphene and related two-dimensional materials are promising candidates for atomically thin, flexible, and transparent optoelectronics. In particular, the strong light-matter interaction in graphene has allowed for the development of…
We show that the work function of exfoliated single layer graphene can be modified by irradiation with swift (E_{kin}=92 MeV) heavy ions under glancing angles of incidence. Upon ion impact individual surface tracks are created in graphene…
Low-energy ion beam modification was proposed to create graphene on the top of the insulated diamond-like carbon films. In such low-temperature fabrication process the surface of the amorphous carbon could crystallize to graphene as a…
Mechanically exfoliated graphene layers deposited on SiO2 substrate were irradiated with Ar+ ions in order to experimentally study the effect of atomic scale defects and disorder on the low-energy electronic structure of graphene. The…
Controlled modification of graphene properties is essential for its proposed electronic applications. Here we describe a possibility of tuning electrical properties of graphene via electron beam irradiation. We show that by controlling the…
Freestanding graphene displays an outstanding resilience to electron irradiation at low electron energies. Point defects in graphene are, however, subject to beam driven dynamics. This means that high resolution micrographs of point…
The authors report micro-Raman investigation of changes in the single and bilayer graphene crystal lattice induced by the low and medium energy electron-beam irradiation (5 and 20 keV). It was found that the radiation exposures results in…
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed to study the formation process of nanopores in a suspended graphene sheet irradiated by using energetic ions though a mask. By controlling the ion parameters including mass, energy and…
Recent experimental findings and theoretical predictions suggest that nitrogen-doped CVD-grown graphene may give rise to electronic band gaps due to impurity distributions which favour segregation on a single sublattice. Here we demonstrate…
Graphene, being one-atom thick, is extremely sensitive to the presence of adsorbed atoms and molecules and, more generally, to defects such as vacancies, holes and/or substitutional dopants. This property, apart from being directly usable…
The effects of Ga+ ion irradiation and high temperature annealing on behavior of nanocrystalline graphene directly grown on quartz and sapphire are presented. It is shown that nanocrystalline graphene stands fairly high doses of ion…
Graphene is an attractive material for microelectronics applications, given such favourable electrical characteristics as high mobility, high operating frequency, and good stability. If graphene is to be implemented in electronic devices on…
Defects change essentially not only electronic but also chemical properties of graphene being centers of its chemical activity. Their functionalization is a way to modify electronic and crystal structure of graphene which may be important…
The extraordinary properties of graphene make it a very promising material for use in optoelectronics. However, this is still a nascent field, where some basic properties of the electromagnetic field in graphene must be explored. Here we…
Undoped graphene is semi-metallic and thus not suitable for many electronic and optoelectronic applications requiring gapped semiconductor materials. However, a periodic array of holes (antidot lattice) renders graphene semiconducting with…
