Monatomic metal (e.g. silver) structures could form preferably at graphene edges. We explore their structural and electronic properties by performing density functional theory based first-principles calculations. The results show that cohesion between metal atoms, as well as electronic coupling between metal atoms and graphene edges offer remarkable structural stability of the hybrid. We find that the outstanding mechanical properties of graphene allow tunable properties of the metal monatomic structures by straining the structure. The concept is extended to metal rings and helices that form at open ends of carbon nanotubes and edges of twisted graphene ribbons. These findings demostrate the role of graphene edges as an efficient one-dimensional template for low-dimensional metal structures that are mechanotunable.
Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) study of air-physisorbed defective carbon nano-onions evidences in favor of microwave assisted formation of weakly-bound paramagnetic complexes comprising negatively-charged O2- ions and edge carbon atoms carryin
The optical response of graphene micro-structures, such as micro-ribbons and disks, is dominated by the localized plasmon resonance in the far infrared (IR) spectral range. An ensemble of such structures is usually involved and the effect of the coup
In this paper we present a comprehensive model for the tunneling current of the metal-insulator-graphene heterostructure, based on the Bardeen Transfer Hamiltonian method, of the metal-insulator-graphene heterostructure. As a particular case we have
We demonstrate the fabrication of graphene nanogap with crystallographically matching edges on SiO2Si substrates by divulsion. The current-voltage measurement is then performed in a high-vacuum chamber for a graphene nanogap with few hundred nanomete
A blueprint for producing scalable digital graphene electronics has remained elusive. Current methods to produce semiconducting-metallic graphene networks all suffer from either stringent lithographic demands that prevent reproducibility, process-ind
