Microstructure characterization is of great value to understanding nuclear graphite's properties and irradiation behavior. However, graphite is soft and could be easily damaged during sample preparation. A three-step polishing method…
Graphite, as a material for high-temperature gas-cooled reactors (HTGR), will be exposed to harsh environment. The stability of graphite structure under irradiation is of a key importance for efficiency, reliability and security of the…
We demonstrate that hexagonal graphene nanoflakes with zigzag edges display quantum interference (QI) patterns analogous to benzene molecular junctions. In contrast with graphene sheets, these nanoflakes also host magnetism. The cooperative…
Formation of clusters of interstitial carbon atoms between the surface and second atomic layers of graphite is demonstrated by means of molecular dynamics simulations. It is shown that interstitial clusters result in the dome-like surface…
A sample of quasi-two-dimensional graphite (QTDG) whose magnetic properties are described within the Dirac fermion model is investigated by the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) techniques. The broad…
Since an ion-beam is a viable attractive alternative to other material surface patterning techniques like an electron-beam, a study of the structure, composition and dimension of patterned lines created on surfaces of Si and SrTiO3 wafers…
Depth profiling of graphene with high-resolution ion beam analysis is a practical method for analysis of monolayer thicknesses of graphene. Not only is the energy resolution sufficient to resolve graphene from underlying SiC, but by use of…
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) are nanoscale structures of graphene with quantum properties and edge effects that give photoluminescence properties. The effect of quantum confinement and differences in the nature of GQD structure makes its…
Despite the enormous interest in the properties of graphene and the potential of graphene nanostructures in electronic applications, the study of quantum confined states in atomically well-defined graphene nanostructures remains an…
4th Generation high-temperature gas-cooled nuclear reactors (HTGR) are regarded as possible sources of industrial heat in Poland and Europe, allowing for a substantial reduction of the dependency on gas and coal import. It is mainly due to…
Destructive quantum interference (QI) has been a source of interest as a new paradigm for molecular electronics as the electronic conductance is widely dependent on the occurrence or absence of destructive QI effects. In order to interpret…
We study the electronic and magnetic properties of multilayer quantum dots (MQDs) of graphite in the nearest-neighbor approximation of tight-binding model. We calculate the electronic density of states and orbital susceptibility of the…
Superperiodic patterns were observed by STM on two kinds of finite-sized graphene sheets. One is nanographene sheets inclined from a highly oriented pyrolitic graphite (HOPG) substrate and the other is several-layer-thick graphene sheets…
The conductance through a quantum point contact created by a sharp and hard metal tip on the graphite surface has features which to our knowledge have not been encountered so far in metal contacts or in nanowires. In this paper we first…
The results of density functional theory calculations and measurements using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of Co-nanoparticles dispersed on graphene/Cu are presented. It is found that for low cobalt thickness (0.02 nm - 0.06 nm) the Co…
Quantum interference (QI) effects in molecular junctions may be used to obtain large thermoelectric responses. We study the electrical conductance G and the thermoelec- tric response of a series of molecules featuring a quinoid core using…
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) represent single layers up to dozens of graphene layers smaller than 30 nm. GQDs are newish molecules that have aroused great interest in research because of their exceptional and manageable optical, electrical,…
We employ scanning probe microscopy to reveal atomic structures and nanoscale morphology of graphene-based electronic devices (i.e. a graphene sheet supported by an insulating silicon dioxide substrate) for the first time. Atomic resolution…
As impermeable to gas molecules and at the same time transparent to high-energy ions, graphene has been suggested as a window material for separating a high-vacuum ion beam system from targets kept at ambient conditions. However,…
In this Letter, using quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), we experimentally determined the mass density of graphene grown by chemical vapor deposition method. We developed a transfer printing technique to integrate large area single-layer…
