Monte Carlo simulations, supplemented by ab initio calculations, shed light into the energetics and thermodynamic stability of nanostructured amorphous carbon. The interaction of the embedded nanocrystals with the host amorphous matrix is…

Here we demonstrate the selective bulk scale synthesis of delaminated graphene sheets by a proper choice of magnetic field modulating an electric-arc. An ultra-high purity glassy graphite anode was sublimated in an argon atmosphere. Carbon…

Here we present graphene-based nanoelectromechanical switch with the vertical carbon nanotube electrode via classical molecular dynamics simulations. The carbon nanotube is grown in the center of the square hole and the graphene covers on…

Graphene holds great potential for superconductivity due to its pure two-dimensional nature, the ability to tune its carrier density through electrostatic gating, and its unique, relativistic-like electronic properties. At present, we are…

We show that the physics of deformation in $\alpha$-, $\beta$-, and $6,6,12$-graphyne is, despite their significantly more complex lattice structures, remarkably close to that of graphene, with inhomogeneously strained graphyne described at…

Graphite oxide is an amorphous insulator. Although several models have been suggested, its structure remains controversial. To elucidate this issue, 5 samples were prepared by the Brodie process and the Staudenmaier process. The electronic…

By merging bottom-up and top-down strategies we tailor graphene's electronic properties within nanometer accuracy, which opens up the possibility to design optical and plasmonic circuitries at will. In a first step, graphene electronic…

Graphynes and graphdiynes are carbon 2D allotrope structures presenting both sp2 and sp hybridized atoms. These materials have been theoretically predicted but due to intrinsic difficulties in their synthesis, only recently some of these…

We predict the stability of a new extended two-dimensional hydrocarbon on the basis of first-principles total energy calculations. The compound that we call graphane is a fully saturated hydrocarbon derived from a single graphene sheet with…

The article discusses carbocatalysis provided with amorphous carbons. The discussion is conducted from the standpoint of the spin chemistry of graphene molecules, in the framework of which the amorphous carbocatalysts are a conglomerate of…

We report on the fabrication and operation of a multi-element vibrational structure consisting of two graphene mechanical resonators coupled by a nanotube beam. The whole structure is suspended. Each graphene resonator is clamped by two…

In this paper, we offer large and realistic models of amorphous carbon spanning densities from 0.95 g/cm3 to 3.5 g/cm3 . The models are designed to agree as closely as possible with experimental diffraction data while simultaneously…

First-principles calculations show that monatomic strings of carbon have high cohesive energy and axial strength, and exhibit stability even at high temperatures. Due to their flexibility and reactivity, carbon chains are suitable for…

Two-dimensional (2D) hybrid sp-sp2 carbon systems are an appealing subject for science and technology. For these materials, topology and structure significantly affect electronic and vibrational properties. We investigate here by periodic…

Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are one-dimensional nanostructures predicted to display a rich variety of electronic behaviors. Depending on their structure, GNRs realize metallic and semiconducting electronic structures with band gaps that can…

Theoretical progress in graphene physics has largely relied on the application of a simple nearest-neighbor tight-binding model capable of predicting many of the electronic properties of this material. However, important features that…

Using the density-functional-based tight-binding method we performed a systematic comparative study of stability, structural and electronic properties for 12 various types of graphene allotropes, which are likely candidates for engineering…
