- Title
- Creating a Nanoporous Graphene Network
- Technique
- Scanning Tunneling Microscopy
- Description
- This image represents a 3D top-view of a STM map with a high
resolution Nanoporous Graphene network supported on gold surface.
The STM tip, scans in close proximity to the surface, enabling to
acquire about its topographical profile. This single carbon atom thick
nanostructures are produced through a chemical synthesis where, the
highest reactivity at the carbon atom edges bonds, with incredible
selectivity, to the edges of the nearest ribbon to form the most stable
configuration.
