As the first in a large family of 2D van der Waals (vdW) materials, graphene has attracted
enormous attention owing to its remarkable properties. The recent development of simple …

Graphene's success has shown that it is possible to create stable, single and few-atom-thick
layers of van der Waals materials, and also that these materials can exhibit fascinating and …

Graphene has demonstrated great promise for future electronics technology as well as
fundamental physics applications because of its linear energy–momentum dispersion …

As mechanical structures enter the nanoscale regime, the influence of van der Waals forces
increases. Graphene is attractive for nanomechanical systems, because its Young's …

Interfacial adhesion energy is a fundamental property of two-dimensional (2D) layered
materials and van der Waals heterostructures due to their intrinsic ultrahigh surface to …

Raman spectroscopy has become an essential technique to characterize and investigate
graphene and many other two-dimensional materials. However, there is still a lack of …

Since graphene, a single sheet of graphite, has all of its carbon atoms on the surface, its
property is very sensitive to materials contacting the surface. Herein, we report novel Raman …

Graphene edges determine the optical, magnetic, electrical, and electronic properties of
graphene. In particular, termination, chemical functionalization and reconstruction of …

The recent studies of thermal transport in suspended, supported, and encased graphene
just began to uncover the richness of two-dimensional phonon physics, which is relevant to …

There is a growing interest in 2D materials-based devices as the replacement for
