We used a molecular dynamics simulation with the modified Brenner reactive empirical bond order potential to investigate the erosion of a graphite surface due to the incidence of hydrogen, deuterium, and tritium atoms. Incident particles…

Graphene quantum dots (GQD) are interesting materials due to the confined sizes which allow to exploit their optoelectronic properties, especially when they interface with organic molecules through physisorption. In particular, when…

It has been known that pentagons and heptagons in hexagonal graphitic network give rise to a certain amount of curvature in the three dimensional structure of graphitic carbon materials. The amount of curvature is quantized due to the…
