In this paper, a two-dimensional phase field crystal model of graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is extended to include out-of-plane deformations in stacked multilayer systems. As proof principle, the shown analytically reduce standard models flexible sheets small deformation limit. Applications strained sheets, dislocation dipoles, grain boundaries are used validate behavior single lay...

Graphene is an ideal membrane for selective separation because of its unique properties and single-layer structure. Considerable efforts have been made to alter the permeability of graphene. In this study, we investigate the pathways for an oxygen atom to pass through graphene sheets. We also identify the effect of the ripple's curvature in graphene sheets on the energy barrier of permeation th...

The new carbon age Nanotubes and Graphene a transparent future ahead Graphene is two-dimensional nanomaterial consisting of a single layer of sp 2 network of carbon atoms (Fig. 1a) 1. While the thickness of a graphene sheet is on the order of a single atomic unit, its lateral dimension can approach up to tens of microns. Graphene and its derivatives such as graphene oxide (GO) (Fig. 1b), and re...

this paper proposed analytical solutions for the buckling analysis of rectangular single-layered graphene sheets under in-plane loading on all edges simply is supported. the characteristic equations of the graphene sheets are derived and the analysis formula is based on the nonlocal mindlin plate. this theory is considering both the small length scale effects and transverse shear deformation ef...

The electronic structure of epitaxial monolayer, bilayer, and trilayer graphene on Ru(0001) was determined by selected-area angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (micro-ARPES). Micro-ARPES band maps provide evidence for a strong electronic coupling between monolayer graphene and the adjacent metal, which causes the complete disruption of the graphene pi-bands near the Fermi energy. However,...

Graphene, a flat monolayer of carbon atoms tightly packed into a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice, has attracted a great deal of attention in recent years for potential applications in many technological fields, such as nanoelectronics, nanocomposites, and hydrogen supercapacitors. One possible route to harnessing these properties would be to incorporate graphene sheets into composite material...

Surfactant-treated graphene/polyaniline (G/PANI) nanocomposites were prepared by the MnO2 template-aided oxidative polymerization of aniline (ANI) on the surfactant-treated graphene sheets. The electrochemical performances of the G/PANI nanocomposites in a three-electrode system using an aqueous sulfuric acid as an electrolyte exhibited a specific capacitance of 436 F g(-1) at 1 A g(-1), which ...

Owing to recent advances in chemical vapour deposition, graphene sheets can now be made in quantities that are large enough for essentially all research and development purposes1–3. For practical applications, however, new methods are required to transfer the graphene from the growth substrate to a target substrate without damaging either the graphene sheet or the target surface. Various transf...
