    In addition, it is known that when single-layer graphene is supported on an amorphous material, the thermal conductivity is reduced to about 500 – 600 W⋅m −1 ⋅K −1 at room temperature as a result of scattering of graphene lattice waves by the substrate, [172] [173] and can be even lower for few-layer graphene encased in amorphous ...

    This is a result of the Atiyah–Singer index theorem index theorem and causes the "+1/2" term in the Hall conductivity for neutral graphene. [4] [47] In bilayer graphene, the quantum Hall effect is also observed but with only one of the two anomalies. The Hall conductivity in bilayer graphene is given by:

  4. Single-layer materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-layer_materials

    Single-layer materials derived from single elements generally carry the -ene suffix in their names, e.g. graphene. Single-layer materials that are compounds of two or more elements have -ane or -ide suffixes. 2D materials can generally be categorized as either 2D allotropes of various elements or as compounds (consisting of two or more ...

    A two-dimensional semiconductor (also known as 2D semiconductor) is a type of natural semiconductor with thicknesses on the atomic scale. Geim and Novoselov et al. initiated the field in 2004 when they reported a new semiconducting material graphene, a flat monolayer of carbon atoms arranged in a 2D honeycomb lattice. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotropes_of_carbon

    As with all glassy materials, some short-range order can be observed, but there is no long-range pattern of atomic positions. While entirely amorphous carbon can be produced, most amorphous carbon contains microscopic crystals of graphite-like, [17] or even diamond-like carbon. [18] Coal and soot or carbon black are

  8. Discovery of graphene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discovery_of_graphene

    This "epitaxial graphene" consists of a single-atom-thick hexagonal lattice of sp 2-bonded carbon atoms, as in free-standing graphene. However, significant charge transfers from the substrate to the epitaxial graphene, and in some cases, the d-orbitals of the substrate atoms hybridize with the π orbitals of graphene, which significantly alters ...

    Some explanations of Black Friday claim that the holiday references a 19th-century term for the day after Thanksgiving, during which plantation owners could buy slaves at discount prices.
