Modelling of Three-Dimensional Nanographene
نویسندگان
چکیده
Monte Carlo simulations and tight-binding calculations shed light on the properties of three-dimensional nanographene, a material composed of interlinked, covalently-bonded nanoplatelet graphene units. By constructing realistic model networks of nanographene, we study its structure, mechanical stability, and optoelectronic properties. We find that the material is nanoporous with high specific surface area, in agreement with experimental reports. Its structure is characterized by randomly oriented and curved nanoplatelet units which retain a high degree of graphene order. The material exhibits good mechanical stability with a formation energy of only ∼0.3 eV/atom compared to two-dimensional graphene. It has high electrical conductivity and optical absorption, with values approaching those of graphene.

Role of edges in the electronic and magnetic structures of nanographene
In graphene edges or nanographene, the presence of edges strongly affects the electronic structure depending on their edge shape (zigzag and armchair edges) as observed with the electron wave interference and the creation of non-bonding π -electron state (edge state). We investigate the edge-inherent electronic features and the magnetic properties of edge-sate spins in nanographene/graphene edg...
متن کاملAn Electron‐Poor C64 Nanographene by Palladium‐Catalyzed Cascade C−C Bond Formation: One‐Pot Synthesis and Single‐Crystal Structure Analysis
Herein, we report the one-pot synthesis of an electron-poor nanographene containing dicarboximide groups at the corners. We efficiently combined palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling and dehydrohalogenation to synthesize an extended two-dimensional π-scaffold of defined size in a single chemical operation starting from N-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-4,5-dibromo-1,8-naphthalimide and a te...
متن کاملHeat Transfer in Three-Dimensional Flow along a Porous Plate
An analysis of heat transfer in the flow of a viscous, in-compressible fluid along an infinite porous plate is presented when the plate is subjected to a transverse sinusoidal suction. The flow field becomes three-dimensional due to this type of suction velocity. Expressions for the flow and temperature fields are obtained by series expansion method. It is found during the course of discussion ...
متن کاملThermodynamic study of lead ion removal by adsorption onto nanographene sheets
A batch adsorption study was applied to investigate the adsorption of Pb2+ ions from aqueous solutionby nanographene (nG).The adsorption percentage of Pb2+ions onto nG samples at different initial pH,contact time (tc), adsorbent dosage (mnG) and temperature (T) were investigated. The results showedthat nG is an excellent adsorbent for Pb2+ions removal from aqueous solutions with an adsorptionpe...
متن کاملDirect exfoliation of graphite with a porphyrin--creating functionalizable nanographene hybrids.
Exfoliation of graphite was achieved using a free-base porphyrin 1 resulting in an efficient fabrication of single-layer nanographene (NG)- hybrid platelets that can be further functionalized with other nanomaterials. The novel nanographene-porphyrin hybrids reveal efficient charge transfer in the excited state.
