TL;DR: This work determines the location and identity of every atom at a grain boundary and finds that different grains stitch together predominantly through pentagon–heptagon pairs, and reveals an unexpectedly small and intricate patchwork of grains connected by tilt boundaries.

TL;DR: Graphene films grown by chemical vapor deposition are demonstrated for the first time to protect the surface of the metallic growth substrates of Cu and Cu/Ni alloy from air oxidation, allowing pure metal surfaces only one atom away from reactive environments.

TL;DR: In this paper, the ability of graphene films grown by chemical vapor deposition to protect the surface of the metallic growth substrates of Cu and Cu/Ni alloy from air oxidation was demonstrated.

TL;DR: Three chemically distinct COF films grown on SLG exhibit similar vertical alignment and long-range order, and two of these are of interest for organic electronic devices for which thin-film formation is a prerequisite for characterizing their optoelectronic properties.

TL;DR: This work reports a versatile and scalable process that allows for the spatially controlled synthesis of lateral junctions between electrically conductive graphene and insulating h-BN, as well as between intrinsic and substitutionally doped graphene, and demonstrates that the resulting films form mechanically continuous sheets across these heterojunctions.
