Journal ArticleDOI
Functionalized Single Graphene Sheets Derived from Splitting Graphite Oxide
Hannes C. Schniepp,Je-Luen Li,Michael J. McAllister,Hiroaki Sai,Margarita Herrera-Alonso,Douglas H. Adamson,Robert K. Prud'homme,Roberto Car,Dudley A. Saville,Ilhan A. Aksay +9 more
TL;DR: The process yields a wrinkled sheet structure resulting from reaction sites involved in oxidation and reduction processes, and functionalized graphene produced by this method is electrically conducting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single Sheet Functionalized Graphene by Oxidation and Thermal Expansion of Graphite
Michael J. McAllister,Je-Luen Li,Douglas H. Adamson,Hannes C. Schniepp,Ahmed Abdala,Jun-Jun Liu,Margarita Herrera-Alonso,David L. Milius,Roberto Car,Robert K. Prud'homme,Ilhan A. Aksay +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed analysis of the thermal expansion mechanism of graphite oxide to produce functionalized graphene sheets is provided, where it is shown that the decomposition rate of the epoxy and hydroxyl sites exceeds the diffusion rate of evolved gases, yielding pressures that exceed the van der Waals forces holding the graphene sheets together.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxygen-driven unzipping of graphitic materials.
Je-Luen Li,Konstantin N. Kudin,Michael J. McAllister,Robert K. Prud'homme,Ilhan A. Aksay,Roberto Car +5 more
TL;DR: An unzipping mechanism to explain the formation of cracks on GO and cutting of carbon nanotubes in an oxidizing acid is proposed and two small GO platelets are employed to show that through the binding of a new epoxy group or the hopping of a nearby existing Epoxy group, the unzipped process can be continued during the oxidative process of graphite.

Journal ArticleDOI
The role of vacancy defects and holes in the fracture of carbon nanotubes
Steven L. Mielke,Diego Troya,Sulin Zhang,Je-Luen Li,Shaoping Xiao,Roberto Car,Rodney S. Ruoff,George C. Schatz,Ted Belytschko +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of vacancy defects in the fracture of carbon nanotubes under axial tension was investigated using density functional theory and semi-empirical methods, and molecular mechanics (MM) calculations with a Tersoff-Brenner potential.
