Graphene, a hexagonal sheet of $sp^2$-bonded carbon atoms, has extraordinary properties which hold immense promise for future nanoelectronic applications. Unfortunately, the popular preparation methods of micromechanical cleavage and…
In the field of condensed matter, graphene plays a central role as an emerging material for nanoelectronics. Nevertheless, graphene is a semimetal, which constitutes a severe limitation for some future applications. Therefore, a lot of…
The atomic and electronic structures of a graphene layer on top of the $(2\times2)$ reconstruction of the SiC (000$\bar{1}$) surface are studied from ab initio calculations. At variance with the (0001) face, no C bufferlayer is found here.…
Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning TEM (STEM) are indispensable tools for materials characterization. However, during a typical (S)TEM experiment, the sample is subject to a number of effects that can change its atomic…

We present a solution for the observed core fragmentation of filaments in the Taurus L1517 dark cloud which previously could not be explained (Hacar et. al 2011). Core fragmentation is a vital step for the formation of stars. Observations…
We investigated the atomic structures, Raman spectroscopic and electrical transport properties of individual graphene nanoribbons (GNRs, widths ~10-30 nm) derived from sonochemical unzipping of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs).…
