Raman spectroscopy of graphene edges.
Graphene edges are of particular interest since their orientation determines the electronic properties. Here we present a detailed Raman investigation of graphene flakes with edges oriented at different crystallographic directions. We also develop a real space theory for Raman scattering to analyze the general case of disordered edges. The position, width, and intensity of G and D peaks are stu...
متن کاملTransport measurements across a tunable potential barrier in graphene.
The peculiar nature of electron scattering in graphene is among many exciting theoretical predictions for the physical properties of this material. To investigate electron scattering properties in a graphene plane, we have created a gate-tunable potential barrier within a single-layer graphene sheet. We report measurements of electrical transport across this structure as the tunable barrier pot...
متن کاملChemical Versus Thermal Folding of Graphene Edges
Using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, we have investigated the kinetics of the graphene edge folding process. The lower limit of the energy barrier is found to be ~380 meV/Å (or about 800 meV per edge atom) and ~50 meV/Å (or about 120 meV per edge atom) for folding the edges of intrinsic clean single-layer graphene (SLG) and double-layer graphene (DLG), respectively. However, the edge fold...
متن کاملOpen and closed edges of graphene layers.
Edge structures of thermally treated graphite have been studied by means of atomically resolved high-resolution TEM. The method for the determination of a monolayer or more than one layer graphene sheets is established. A series of tilting experiments proves that the zigzag and armchair edges are mostly closed between adjacent graphene layers, and the number of dangling bonds is therefore minim...
متن کاملGraphene Oxidation Barrier Coating
Since its experimental isolation in 2004, graphene has shown some outstanding properties. We propose that graphene can be used as an oxidation barrier coating and its oxidation resistance weakens at the graphene grain boundaries. Copper is a superior conductor but is easily oxidized in air at room temperature or higher. Using graphene as a coating material may reduce the cost of protecting agai...
