Journal ArticleDOI
H-Spillover through the Catalyst Saturation: An Ab Initio Thermodynamics Study.
TL;DR: It is shown that thermodynamic spillover can occur, both from the free-standing and from the receptor-supported clusters, and the computed energy barrier of the motion of a H from the catalyst to the hydrogenated graphene is small and can be overcome at operational temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterning nanoroads and quantum dots on fluorinated graphene
Morgana de Avila Ribas,Abhishek K. Singh,Abhishek K. Singh,Pavel B. Sorokin,Boris I. Yakobson +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the fluorination of graphene and found that different stoichiometric phases can be formed without a nucleation barrier, with the complete 2D-Teflon phase being thermodynamically most stable.
Journal Article
Patterning nanoroads and quantum dots on fluorinated graphene
TL;DR: In this article, the fluorination of graphene has been investigated and different stoichiometric phases can be formed without a nucleation barrier, with the complete "2D-Teflon" CF phase being thermodynamically most stable.
Journal ArticleDOI
The ultimate diamond slab: GraphAne versus graphEne
TL;DR: In this paper, the properties of three carbon nanomaterials of technological interest: graphene, graphane, and fluorinated graphene are compared by means of first principles and tight-binding calculations in combination with analytical methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanotube nucleation versus carbon-catalyst adhesion--probed by molecular dynamics simulations.
TL;DR: A means of designing the catalyst for better CNT synthesis, potentially at desirably low temperatures, is revealed and the longest simulated nanotube structures are obtained.
