The presence of defects in graphene has an essential influence on its physical and chemical
properties. The formation, behaviour and healing of defects are determined by energetic …

Two-dimensional (2D) materials such as graphene and molybdenum disulfide have been
demonstrated with a wide range of applications in electronic devices, chemical catalysis …

We have performed a first-principles density functional theory investigation of the
penetration of helium atoms through a graphene monolayer with defects. The relaxation of …

We present a new way of nanoengineering graphene by using defect domains. These
regions have ring structures that depart from the usual honeycomb lattice, though each …

Graphene nanosheets serve as excellent support materials in the synthesis of advanced
metal nanoparticle–graphene electrocatalysts. In this study, we employ a combination of …

Graphene is the strongest material ever studied and can be an efficient substitute for silicon.
This six-volume handbook focuses on fabrication methods, nanostructure and atomic …

Topological defects can affect the physical properties of graphene in unexpected ways.
Harnessing their influence may lead to enhanced control of both material strength and …

Density-functional calculations have been performed to investigate the adsorption of CO2 on
defected graphite (0001) represented by a single graphene sheet. The interaction with a …

The formation and kinetics of single and double vacancies in graphene chemical vapor
deposition (CVD) growth on Cu (111), Ni (111), and Co (0001) surfaces are investigated by …

The stability of a dislocation defect with two pentagon-heptagon (5-7) pairs in a graphene
layer is investigated within first-principles density-functional theory scheme. It is found that …
