The symmetry group analysis is applied to classify the phonon modes of $N$-stacked graphene layers (NSGL's) with AB- and AA-stacking, particularly their infra-red and Raman properties. The dispersions of various phonon modes are calculated…
Classical thermal transport theories that preserve rotational symmetry, predict strong anharmonic scattering of out-of-plane lattice vibrational modes called flexural phonons in flat suspended graphene sheets. Such strong scattering…
Raman spectroscopy is the prime non-destructive characterization tool for graphene and related layered materials. The shear (C) and layer breathing modes (LBMs) are due to relative motions of the planes, either perpendicular or parallel to…

Layer-layer coupling plays a critical role in defining the physical properties of few-layer graphene (FLG). With respect to vibrations, the interlayer coupling is predicted to create a set of N-1 finite frequency, out-of-plane interlayer…
Few-layer graphene is a layered carbon material with covalent bonding in the layers and weak van der Waals interactions between the layers. The interlayer energy is more than two orders of magnitude smaller than the intralayer one, which…
