Graphene-based materials exhibit remarkable electronic, optical, and mechanical
properties, which has resulted in both high scientific interest and huge potential for a variety …

sp 2 hybridized carbons constitute a broad class of solid phases composed primarily of
elemental carbon and can be either synthetic or naturally occurring. Some examples are …

Raman spectroscopy is an integral part of graphene research. It is used to determine the
number and orientation of layers, the quality and types of edge, and the effects of …

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films have been extensively applied in industries owing to their
excellent characteristics such as high hardness. In particular, there is a growing demand for …

Riemann surfaces inspired chemists to design and synthesize such multidimensional curved
carbon architectures. It has been predicted that carbon nanosolenoid materials with …

Amorphous carbon (AC) is present in the bulk and on the surface of nanostructured carbon
materials (NCMs) and exerts a significant effect on the physical, chemical and mechanical …

Strengthening behavior of composite containing discontinuous reinforcement is strongly
related with load transfer at the reinforcement–matrix interface. We selected multi-walled …

The properties of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) make them good candidates for next-
generation electronic materials. Whereas 'top-down'methods, such as the lithographical …

We review recent work on Raman spectroscopy of graphite and graphene. We focus on the
origin of the D and G peaks and the second order of the D peak. The G and 2D Raman …

Raman spectroscopy is a standard characterization technique for any carbon system. Here
we review the Raman spectra of amorphous, nanostructured, diamond–like carbon and …
