TLDR
In this article, the changes in the electronic structure induced by lattice defects in graphene planes were studied and it was shown that lattice distortions give rise to localized states at the Fermi level.Abstract:
We study the changes in the electronic structure induced by lattice defects in graphene planes. In many cases, lattice distortions give rise to localized states at the Fermi level. Electron-electron interactions lead to the existence of local moments. The RKKY interaction between these moments is always ferromagnetic, due to the semimetallic properties of graphene.read more

Dynamical polarization of graphene at finite doping
TL;DR: In this paper, the polarization of graphene is calculated exactly within the random phase approximation for arbitrary frequency, wavevector and doping, and the dynamical polarization for low q and arbitrary ω is employed to calculate the dispersion relation and the decay rate of plasmons and acoustic phonons.

Room-temperature ferromagnetism of graphene.
TL;DR: The experimental results on the ferromagnetism of graphene-based materials at room temperature are reported and it is believed that the observed room-temperature ferromagnetic properties are believed to come from the defects on graphene.

Room-temperature ferromagnetism in graphite driven by two-dimensional networks of point defects
TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic magnetic force microscope study indicates that ferromagnetism in graphite is the result of localized spins that arise at grain boundaries, which usually only occurs in materials containing elements that form covalent 3d and 4f bonds.

TL;DR: In this paper, a perturbation calculation which starts with wave functions of the two-dimensional lattice and is applied to the three-dimensional graphite lattice is described and general features of the structure of the $\ensuremath{\pi}$ bands in the neighborhood of the zone edge are obtained and are expressed in terms of appropriate parameters.

Magnetic nanographite
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that hydrogenation of nanographite is able to induce finite magnetization and demonstrated the spontaneous magnetism of a graphene ribbon in which each carbon is bonded to two hydrogen atoms at one edge and to a single hydrogen atom at another edge.
