We demonstrate anisotropic etching of single-layer graphene by thermally-activated nickel nanoparticles. Using this technique, we obtain sub-10nm nanoribbons and other graphene nanostructures with edges aligned along a single crystallographic direction. We observe a new catalytic channeling behavior, whereby etched cuts do not intersect, resulting in continuously connected geometries. Raman spectroscopy and electronic measurements show that the quality of the graphene is resilient under the etching conditions, indicating that this method may serve as a powerful technique to produce graphene nanocircuits with well-defined crystallographic edges.

Nearly free electron (NFE) state is an important kind of unoccupied state in low dimensional systems. Although it is intensively studied, a clear picture on its physical origin and its response behavior to external perturbations is still not availabl
e. Our systematic first-principles study based on graphene nanoribbon superlattices suggests that there are actually two kinds of NFE states, which can be understood by a simple Kronig-Penney potential model. An atom-scattering-free NFE transport channel can be obtained via electron doping, which may be used as a conceptually new field effect transistor.
Correct defect quantification in graphene samples is crucial both for fundamental and applied re-search. Raman spectroscopy represents the most widely used tool to identify defects in graphene. However, despite its extreme importance the relation bet
ween the Raman features and the amount of defects in multilayered graphene samples has not been experimentally verified. In this study we intentionally created defects in single layer graphene, turbostratic bilayer graphene and Bernal stacked bilayer graphene by oxygen plasma. By employing isotopic labelling, our study reveals substantial differences of the effects of plasma treatment on individual layers in bilayer graphene with different stacking orders. In addition Raman spectroscopy evidences scattering of phonons in the bottom layer by defects in the top layer for Bernal-stacked samples, which can in general lead to overestimation of the number of defects by as much as a factor of two.
We carried out micro-Raman spectroscopy of graphene layers over the temperature range from approximately 80 K to 370 K. The number of layers was independently confirmed by the quantum Hall measurements and atomic force microscopy. The measured values
of the temperature coefficients for the G and 2D-band frequencies of the single-layer graphene are -0.016 1/(cm K) and -0.034 1/(cm K), respectively. The G peak temperature coefficient of the bi-layer graphene and bulk graphite are -0.015 1/(cm K) and -0.011 1/(cm K), respectively.
Conversion of pure spin current to charge current in single-layer graphene (SLG) is investigated by using spin pumping. Large-area SLG grown by chemical vapor deposition is used for the conversion. Efficient spin accumulation in SLG by spin pumping e
nables observing an electromotive force produced by the inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) of SLG. The spin Hall angle of SLG is estimated to be 6.1*10-7. The observed ISHE in SLG is ascribed to its non-negligible spin-orbit interaction in SLG.
A clear gate voltage tunable weak antilocalization and a giant magnetoresistance of 400 percent are observed at 1.9 K in single layer graphene with an out-of-plane field. A large magnetoresistance value of 275 percent is obtained even at room tempera
ture implying potential applications of graphene in magnetic sensors. Both the weak antilocalization and giant magnetoresistance persists far away from the charge neutrality point in contrast to previous reports, and both effects are originated from charged impurities. Interestingly, the signatures of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations and the quantum Hall effect are also observed for the same sample.
