In-situ observation and atomic resolution imaging of the ion irradiation induced amorphisation of graphene

In-situ observation and atomic resolution imaging of the ion irradiation induced amorphisation of graphene

Ion irradiation has been observed to induce a macroscopic flattening and in-plane shrinkage of graphene sheets without a complete loss of crystallinity. Electron diffraction studies performed during simultaneous in-situ ion irradiation have allowed identification of the fluence at which the graphene...

Electron diffraction studies performed during simultaneous in-situ ion irradiation have allowed identification of the fluence at which the graphene sheet loses long-range order.
