Plasmonic photocatalytic processes typically use the interaction of light with metallic
nanoparticles to drive chemical reactions on their surfaces. Here we show that a plasmonic …

We applied laser-heating in diamond anvil cells (LHDAC) to synthesize a hydrogenated
single-layer graphene (SLG) and to explore the pathway toward graphane (fully …

By means of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) measurements, we studied in situ the
oxidation and reduction of FeO bilayer islands on Au (111) by oxygen (O2) and hydrogen …

Increased interactions at the graphene–metal interface are here demonstrated to yield an
effective prevention of intercalation of foreign species below the graphene cover. Hereby, an …
