Large scale synthesis of single layer graphene (SLG) by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) has received a lot of attention recently. However, CVD synthesis of AB stacked bi-layer graphene (BLG) is still a challenging work. Here we report…
The hexagonal structure of graphene gives rise to the property of gas impermeability, motivating its investigation for a new application: protection of semiconductor photocathodes in electron accelerators. These materials are extremely…
Two-dimensional (2D) materials such as graphene offer a variety of outstanding properties for a wide range of applications. Their transport properties in particular present a rich field of study. However, the studies of transport properties…
The geometric and electronic properties of Bi-adsorbed monolayer graphene, enriched by the strong effect of substrate, are investigated by first-principles calculations. The six-layered substrate, corrugated buffer layer, and slightly…
Spatially-resolved organic functionalization of monolayer graphene is successfully achieved by combining low-energy electron beam irradiation with 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylide. Indeed, the modification of the graphene…
Graphene has attracted significant interest both for exploring fundamental science and for a wide range of technological applications. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is currently the only working approach to grow graphene at wafer scale,…
We report on the adsorption dynamics of phospholipid membranes on graphene-coated substrates using the quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) technique. We compare the lipid vescle interaction and membranne…

Recent atomic force microscopy (AFM) experiments~[ACS Nano {\bf 2014}, 8, 12410-12417] conducted on graphene-coated SiO$_2$ demonstrated that monolayer graphene (G) can effectively screen dispersion van der Waals (vdW) interactions deriving…
We synthesize large-area graphene via atmospheric-pressure (AP) chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on copper, and transfer to SiO2 wafers. In contrast to low-pressure (LP) CVD on copper, optical contrast and atomic force microscopy…
We present a route to non-destructive functionalization of graphene via assembly of vertical all-carbon van der Waals heterostructures. To this end, we employ singlelayer graphene (SLG) sheets grown by low-pressure methane CVD on Cu foils…
This review provides a critical overview of current developments on nanoelectronic biochemical sensors based on graphene. Composed of a single layer of conjugated carbon atoms, graphene has outstanding high carrier mobility and low…
Organic functionalization of graphene is successfully performed via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylide in the liquid phase. The comparison between 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone and N,N-dimethylformamide as dispersant solvents, and…
Multilayer graphene (MLG) films were grown by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) on molybdenum carbide ($MoC_{x}$) substrates. We fabricated the catalytic $MoC_{x}$ films by plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD). The mechanism of…
Photoelectron emission microscopy PEEM is a powerful tool to spectroscopically image dynamic surface processes at the nanoscale but is traditionally limited to ultra high or moderate vacuum conditions. Here, we develop a novel grapheme…
Graphene has been suggested as an ultimately thin functional coating for metallurgical alloys such as steels. However, even on pure iron (Fe), the parent phase of steels, growth of high quality graphene films remains largely elusive to…
In this work, linear polystyrene-poly(2-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P2VP) and heteroarm star PS_22P2VP_22 ionizable block copolymers were used as dispersing agents for the liquid-phase exfoliation of pristine graphene. Various strategies such as…
Adsorbed atoms and molecules play an important role in controlling and tuning the functional properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials. Understanding and predicting this process from theory is challenging because of the need to capture…
We have studied two interchange layer systems, (i) free standing partly hydrogenated graphene (graphone), and (ii) graphone on the Nickel (111) surface, to assess various density functional theory based computational schemes incorporating…
In crystal growth, surfactants are additive molecules used in dilute amount or as dense, permeable layers to control surface morphologies. Here, we investigate the properties of a strikingly different surfactant: a two-dimensional and…
