We investigated the influence of thickness reduction on the transport properties of graphite microflakes. Using oxygen plasma etching we decreased the thickness of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) microflakes from $\sim 100$~nm to…
Graphitic micro-particles coated with thin layers in solution are technologically interesting as they can be manipulated with electric fields. Modeling the electrical manipulation of submerged layered micro-particles analytically or…
We study the Brownian motion (BM) of optically trapped graphene flakes. These orient orthogonal to the light polarization, due to the optical constants anisotropy. We explain the flake dynamics, measure force and torque constants and derive…
Mechanical exfoliation is a widely used method to isolate high quality graphene layers from bulk graphite. In our recent experiments, some ordered microstructures, consisting of a periodic alternation of kinks and stripes, were observed in…
Using optical measurements, we demonstrate that the rotation of micron-scale graphene nanoplatelets levitated in a quadrupole ion trap in high vacuum can be frequency locked to an applied radio frequency (rf) electric field. Over time,…
The long spin-diffusion length, spin-lifetimes and excellent optical absorption coefficient of graphene provide an excellent platform for building opto-electronic devices as well as spin-based logic in a nanometer regime. In this study, by…
We present electrical transport measurements in natural graphite and highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG), comparing macroscopic samples with exfoliated, nanofabricated specimens of nanometer thickness. The latter exhibit a very large…
A method is described for levitating micron-sized few layer graphene flakes in a quadrupole ion trap. Starting from a liquid suspension containing graphene, charged flakes are injected into the trap using the electrospray ionization…
Microelectromechanical systems, which can be moved or rotated with nanometre precision, already find applications in such fields like radio-frequency electronics, micro-attenuators, sensors and many others. Especially interesting are those…
Patterned graphene, as an atomically thin layer, supports localized surface plasmon-polaritons (LSPPs) at mid-infrared or far-infrared frequencies. This provides a pronounced optical force/torque in addition to large optical cross sections…
Graphene nanopatterning on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) has previously been shown using both atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) based techniques, including folding of intrinsic step edges and…
Recently, magnetic order in highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) induced by proton broad- and microbeam irradiation was discovered. Theoretical models propose that hydrogen could play a major role in the magnetism mechanism. We…
We present measurements of the electric potential fluctuations on the surface of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite using electrostatic force and atomic force microscopy. Micrometric domain-like potential distributions are observed even…
Highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HoPG) may be the only known monatomic crystal with the ability to host naturally formed moire patterns on its cleaved surfaces, which are coherent over micrometer scales and with discrete sets of twist…
We present a fabrication method producing large and flat graphene flakes that have a few layers down to a single layer based on substrate bonding of a thick sample of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG), followed by its controlled…
We investigate the ground-state properties of triangular graphene nanoflakes with zigzag edge configurations. The description of zero-dimensional nanostructures requires accurate many-body techniques since the widely used density-functional…
The rotational dynamics of magnetic nano particles in rotating magnetic fields in the presence of thermal noise is studied both theoretically and by performing numerical calculations. Kinetic equations for the dynamics of particles with…
Highly-anisotropic in-plane magneto-resistance (MR) in graphite (HOPG) samples has been recently observed (Y. Kopelevich et al., arXiv:1202.5642) which is negative and linear in low fields in some current direction while it is giant,…
We present an extensive study on electrical spectroscopy of graphene ribbons and edges of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) using atomic force microscope (AFM). We have addressed in the present study two main issues, (1) How does…
Electrons in graphene can travel for several microns without scattering at low temperatures, and their motion becomes ballistic, following classical trajectories. When a magnetic field B is applied perpendicular to the plane, electrons…
