Journal ArticleDOI

Porous graphenes: two-dimensional polymer synthesis with atomic precision

TL;DR: By surface-assisted coupling of specifically designed molecular building blocks, the fabrication of regular two-dimensional polyphenylene networks with single-atom wide pores and sub-nanometer periodicity is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Controlled synthesis of single-chirality carbon nanotubes

TL;DR: This work converts molecular precursors into ultrashort singly capped ‘armchair’ nanotube seeds using surface-catalysed cyclodehydrogenation on a platinum surface, and elongates these during a subsequent growth phase to produce single-chirality and essentially defect-free SWCNTs with lengths up to a few hundred nanometres.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two-dimensional polymer formation on surfaces: insight into the roles of precursor mobility and reactivity

TL;DR: It is shown that different balances between diffusion and intermolecular coupling determine the observed branched and compact polyphenylene networks on the Cu and Ag surface, respectively, demonstrating that the choice of the substrate plays a crucial role in the formation of two-dimensional polymers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Field emission properties of carbon nanotubes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the field emission properties of nanotube thin films deposited by a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition process from 2% CH4 in H2 atmosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI

Engineering of robust topological quantum phases in graphene nanoribbons

TL;DR: A flexible strategy based on atomically precise graphene nanoribbons to design robust nanomaterials exhibiting the valence electronic structures described by the SSH Hamiltonian is presented and controlled periodic coupling of topological boundary states are demonstrated to create quasi-one-dimensional trivial and non-trivial electronic quantum phases.
