Moreover, this finely tunable, methylated graphene is stable at room temperature, which suggests that it has intrinsic potential for novel applications in graphene-based optoelectronic devices, inviting further studies. Graphene: Taking the mild routeThe discovery of graphene — a sheet of graphite that is only one atom thick — has sparked much enthusiasm in the science and technology communities.
Graphene is a desirable material for next generation technology.
In addition, we find that the intrinsic strength of graphene under a central load is much smaller than that of graphene under a uniaxial load.
The results show that capping yields much thinner graphene with excellent uniformity.
Graphene seems to be just the tip of the iceberg and we show how the discovery of alternative 2D materials is starting to show the rest of this iceberg.
Graphene can be made much thinner, even down to a single atomic layer, and is therefore a natural candidate for this kind of application.
Therefore, the performance of graphene with various defects is much lower than its theoretical value.
A value of 1045 K has been obtained, which is much higher than the 590 K reported for graphite under similar conditions, and close to the value of 1287 K calculated for isolated graphene.
This is several orders of magnitude better than any macroscale graphene coating reported to date and performs on a level that can compete with most modern coatings while being much thinner and conductive.
