An operando investigation of graphene growth on (100) grains of polycrystalline nickel (Ni) surfaces was performed by means of variable-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy complemented by density functional theory simulations. A clear…
We demonstrate the high stability of simulated graphene hyperbolic pseudospheres under large externally imposed deformations and high temperature annealing. Hyperbolic pseudospheres are produced in a two-step Molecular Dynamics simulation…
Very recently we developed an efficient method to calculate the free energy of 2D materials on substrates and achieved high calculation precision for graphene or $\gamma$-graphyne on copper substrates. In the present work, the method was…
In our common experience, crumpling a sheet requires external compressive force and leads to a random network of folds. However, thin sheets have been theoretically predicted to spontaneously transition from a flat to a crumpled state…
Utilizing colloidal probe, lateral force microscopy and simultaneous confocal microscopy, combined with finite element analysis, we investigate the mechanism of static friction for a microparticle on a soft, adhesive surface. We find that…
Geometry, stability, and thermal transport of graphene nanoquilts folded by hydrogenation are studied using molecular dynamics simulations. The hydrogenated graphene nanoquilts show increased thermodynamic stability and better transport…
This article is a continuation of our previous studies of the frictional anisotropy of metal nanoparticles on the surface of a graphene substrate for other temperature conditions. The friction force acting on palladium nanoparticles on a…
Low-density, highly porous graphene/graphene oxide (GO) based-foams have shown high performance in energy absorption applications, even under high compressive deformations. In general, foams are very effective as energy dissipative…
We report a new Quantum Mechanical/Molecular Dynamics (QM/MD) simulation loop to model the coupling between the electron and atom dynamics in solid/liquid interfacial systems. The method can describe simultaneously both the quantum…

Man-made artificial graphene has attracted significant attention in the past few years due to the possibilities to construct designer Dirac fermions with unexpected topological properties and applications in nanoelectronics. Here we use a…
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed to study the formation process of nanopores in a suspended graphene sheet irradiated by using energetic ions though a mask. By controlling the ion parameters including mass, energy and…
We shed light on the catalyst-free growth of graphene from amorphous carbon (a-C) by current-induced annealing by witnessing the mechanism both with in-situ transmission electron microscopy and with molecular dynamics simulations. Both in…
Graphene is one of the most researched two dimensional (2D) material due to its unique combination of mechanical, thermal and electrical properties. Special 2D structure of graphene enables it to exhibit a wide range of peculiar material…
We argue, for a wide class of systems including graphene, that in the low temperature, high density, large separation and strong screening limits the drag resistivity behaves as d^{-4}, where d is the separation between the two layers. The…
The interaction between graphene and copper (111) surface have been investigated using the molecular dynamics simulations. We have shown that it is possible to fit Lennard-Jones potential leading to the correct values of the binding energy…
We investigate the melting phenomena of pristine, free-standing infinite and finite size graphene sheets via molecular dynamics simulation using AIREBO potential as implemented in the LAMMPS package. In our simulations, the temperature of…
We delineate a general theoretical framework to determine the substrate-regulated graphene morphology through energy minimization. We then apply such a framework to study the graphene morphology on a substrate with periodic surface grooves.…
The accurate molecular dynamics simulation of weakly bound adhesive complexes, such as supported graphene, is challenging due to the lack of an adequate interface potential. Instead of the widely used Lennard-Jones potential for weak and…
A strategy to overcome sluggish hydrogenation/dehydrogenation of magnesium is demonstrated by creating magnesium-graphene interphase boundaries via high-pressure torsion (HPT). HPT reduces the grain size of pure magnesium from 1 mm to 850…
