Graphyne is a generic name for a carbon allotrope family of 2D structures, where acetylenic groups connect benzenoid rings, with the coexistence of sp and sp2 hybridized carbon atoms. In this work we have investigated, through fully…

The synthesis of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) of desired diameters and chiralities is critical to the design of nanoscale electronic devices with desired properties.1-6 The existing methods are based on self-assembly, 7-16…

Graphene has recently attracted a great deal of interest in both academia and industry because of its unique electronic and optical properties [1,2], as well as its chemical, thermal, and mechanical properties. The superb characteristics of…

As one of the most fascinating confined water/ice phenomena, two-dimensional square ice has been extensively studied and experimentally confirmed in recent years. Apart from the unidirectional homogeneous square icing patterns considered in…

Graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) share the same atomic structure of hexagonal carbon lattice. Yet, their synthesis differs in many aspects, including the shape and size of the catalyst. Here, we demonstrate a floating-catalyst chemical…

The advent of graphene has renewed the interest in other 2D carbon-based materials. Bhattacharya and Jana have proposed a new carbon allotrope, composed of different polygonal carbon rings containing 4, 5, 6, and 10 atoms, named…

When it is oxidized, graphite can be easily exfoliated forming graphene oxide (GO). GO is a critical intermediate for massive production of graphene, and it is also an important material with various application potentials. With many…

Graphene is a one-atom-thick sheet of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice. It was first obtained by exfoliation of graphite in 2004 and has since evolved into a thriving research topic because of its attractive mechanical, thermal,…

Energetic and geometric aspects of the permeation of low-Z atoms through graphene sheets are investigated. Energy barriers and deformations are calculated via density functional theory for the permeation of H, He, Li and Be atoms at several…

The smearing of the graphene/graphane interface due to the thermally activated migration of hydrogen atoms is studied by the molecular dynamics method. Contrary to expectations, it is found that the fast spontaneous regeneration of this…

Graphene is the two-dimensional (2d) building block for carbon allotropes of every other dimensionality. It can be stacked into 3d graphite, rolled into 1d nanotubes, or wrapped into 0d fullerenes. Its recent discovery in free state has…

Large area graphene sheets grown by chemical vapor deposition can potentially be employed as a transparent electrode in photovoltaics if their sheet resistance can be significantly lowered, without any loss in transparency. Here, we report…

The chemical production of graphene as well as its controlled wet- chemical modification is a challenge for synthetic chemists and the characterization of reaction products requires sophisticated analytic methods. In this review we first…

Graphynes are 2D porous structures deriving from graphene featuring triangular and regularly distributed subnanometer pores, which may be exploited to host small gaseous species. First principles adsorption energies of molecular hydrogen…

Using ab initio methods, we propose a simple and effective way to substitutionally dope graphene sheets with Boron. The method consists of selectively exposing each side of the graphene sheet to different elements. We first expose one side…

Linear chains of about 10-13 carbon atoms were predicted to be the most favorable phase on different metal surfaces prior to graphene nucleation. However, unlike the graphene that widely studied both theoretically and experimentally, carbon…

This review on graphene, a one atom thick, two-dimensional sheet of carbon atoms, starts with a general description of the graphene electronic structure as well as a basic experimental toolkit for identifying and handling this material.…

Graphene - a single atomic layer of graphite - is a recently-found two-dimensional form of carbon, which exhibits high crystal quality and ballistic electron transport at room temperature. Soft magnetic NiFe electrodes have been used to…

Graphene, a thinnest material in the world, can form moire structures on different substrates, including graphite, h-BN, or metal surfaces. In such systems the structure of graphene, i. e. its corrugation, as well as its electronic and…

We demonstrate using graphene sheets as a novel mass standard in the scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) based mass spectrometry. Here, free-standing graphene sheets are investigated by STEM. The discrete number of graphene…
