TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an overview of the main techniques for production and processing of graphene and related materials (GRMs), as well as the key characterization procedures, adopting a 'hands-on' approach, providing practical details and procedures as derived from literature and from the authors' experience, in order to enable the reader to reproduce the results.

TL;DR: This work reports the formation of C60 and the triazafullerene C57N3 from aromatic precursors using a highly efficient surface-catalysed cyclodehydrogenation process, and finds that after deposition onto a platinum (111) surface and heating to 750 K, the precursor molecules are transformed into the corresponding fullerene and triazaFULlerene molecules with about 100 per cent yield.

TL;DR: In this article, the interaction of platinum with (110) single crystal surfaces of titanium dioxide (TiO2) has been studied by means of X-ray and ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopies (XPS and UPS), ion backscattering spectroscopy (ISS), and electron-stimulated desorption (ESD) for Pt coverages in the sub- and monolayer range.

TL;DR: It is shown that the adsorption of water by a self-assembled monolayers of single-stranded DNA on a silicon microcantilever can be detected by measuring how the tension in the monolayer changes as a result of hydration.

TL;DR: It is shown that there is a relation between the appearance of a particular Moiré periodicity and the minimization of the absolute value of the strain between the graphene and the substrate for the different orientations between both atomic lattices.
