Graphene, which has good electrical/thermal conductivity, excellent mechanical properties
and large specific surface area, is promising in various fields. However, the easy …

Although graphene's physical structure is a single atom thick, two-dimensional, hexagonal
crystal of sp2 bonded carbon, this simple description belies the myriad interesting and …

The long-term cycling of anode-free Li-metal cells (ie, cells where the negative electrode is
in situ formed by electrodeposition on an electronically conductive matrix of lithium sourced …

We present an overview of the main techniques for production and processing of graphene
and related materials (GRMs), as well as the key characterization procedures. We adopt …

Shape of the C KLL (KVV) Auger spectrum provides a measure of C sp 2/sp 3 hybridisations,
alternative to C 1s spectra fitting. Due to a smaller kinetic energy of C KLL electrons than C …

The interpretation of C1s XPS spectra from disordered oxygenated carbons remains
uncertain despite a variety of schemes reported in the literature. Here, a thermoseries of …

Electrocatalysis is dominated by reaction at the solid–liquid–gas interface; surface
properties of electrocatalysts determine the electrochemical behavior. The surface charge of …

Graphene oxide (GO) prepared from graphite powder using a modified Hummers method
and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) obtained from GO using different reductants, ie, sodium …

Graphene is easily produced by thermally reducing graphene oxide. However, defect
formation in the C network during deoxygenation compromises the charge carrier mobility in …

Aqueous zinc (Zn)-based flow batteries are an attractive option for energy storage systems
due to their inflammability and high energy density. However, Zn dendrite formation, which …
