We report a convergent surface polymerization reaction scheme on Au(111), based on a triple aldol condensation, yielding a carbon-rich, covalent nanoporous two-dimensional network. The reaction is not self-poisoning and proceeds up to a full surface coverage. The deposited precursor molecules 1,3,5-tri(4-acetylphenyl) first form supramolecular assemblies that are converted to the porous covalent network upon heating. The formation and structure of the network and of the intermediate steps are studied with scanning tunneling microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and density functional theory.

A two-dimensional carbon allotrope, Stone-Wales graphene, is identified in stochastic group and graph constrained searches and systematically investigated by first-principles calculations. Stone-Wales graphene consists of well-arranged Stone-Wales de
fects, and it can be constructed through a 90$^circ$ bond-rotation in a $sqrt{8}$$times$$sqrt{8}$ super-cell of graphene. Its calculated energy relative to graphene, +149 meV/atom, makes it more stable than the most competitive previously suggested graphene allotropes. We find that Stone-Wales graphene based on a $sqrt{8}$ super-cell is more stable than those based on $sqrt{9} times sqrt{9}$, $sqrt{12} times sqrt{12}$ and $sqrt{13} times sqrt{13}$ super-cells, and is a magic size that can be further understood through a simple energy splitting and inversion model. The calculated vibrational properties and molecular dynamics of SW-graphene confirm that it is dynamically stable. The electronic structure shows SW-graphene is a semimetal with distorted, strongly anisotropic Dirac cones.
Graphene is considered one of the most promising materials for future electronic. However, in its pristine form graphene is a gapless material, which imposes limitations to its use in some electronic applications. In order to solve this problem many
approaches have been tried, such as, physical and chemical functionalizations. These processes compromise some of the desirable graphene properties. In this work, based on ab initio quantum molecular dynamics, we showed that a two-dimensional carbon allotrope, named biphenylene carbon (BPC) can be obtained from selective dehydrogenation of porous graphene. BPC presents a nonzero bandgap and well-delocalized frontier orbitals. Synthetic routes to BPC are also addressed.
Growth of two-dimensional metals has eluded materials scientists since the discovery of the atomically thin graphene and other covalently bound 2D materials. Here, we report a two-atom-thick hexagonal copper-gold alloy, grown through thermal evaporat
ion on freestanding graphene and hexagonal boron nitride. The structures are imaged at atomic resolution with scanning transmission electron microscopy and further characterized with spectroscopic techniques. Electron irradiation in the microscope provides sufficient energy for a phase transformation of the 2D structure--atoms are released from their lattice sites with the gold atoms eventually forming face-centered cubic nanoclusters on top of 2D regions during observation. The presence of copper in the alloy enhances sticking of gold to the substrate, which has clear implications for creating atomically thin electrodes for applications utilizing 2D materials. Its practically infinite surface-to-bulk ratio also makes the 2D CuAu particularly interesting for catalysis applications.
We present a low energy model for the Bose-Einstein condensation in a quasi-two-dimensional excitonic gas. Using the flow equations of the Renormalization group and a $Phi^4$ model with the dynamical critical exponent $z=2$ we calculate the temperatu
re dependence of the critical density, coherence length, magnetic susceptibility, and specific heat. The model can be relevant for the macroscopic coherence observed in GaAs/AlGaAs coupled quantum wells.
When pristine material surfaces are exposed to air, highly reactive broken bonds can promote the formation of surface oxides with structures and properties differing greatly from bulk. Determination of the oxide structure, however, is often elusive t
hrough the use of indirect diffraction methods or techniques that probe only the outer most layer. As a result, surface oxides forming on widely used materials, such as group III-nitrides, have not been unambiguously resolved, even though critical properties can depend sensitively on their presence. In this work, aberration corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy reveals directly, and with depth dependence, the structure of native two--dimensional oxides that form on AlN and GaN surfaces. Through atomic resolution imaging and spectroscopy, we show that the oxide layers are comprised of tetrahedra--octahedra cation--oxygen units, similar to bulk $theta$--Al$_2$O$_3$ and $beta$--Ga$_2$O$_3$. By applying density functional theory, we show that the observed structures are more stable than previously proposed surface oxide models. We place the impact of these observations in the context of key III-nitride growth, device issues, and the recent discovery of two-dimnesional nitrides.
