      Graphene deposited on planar surfaces often exhibits sharp and localized folds delimiting seemingly planar regions, as a result of compressive stresses transmitted by the substrate. Such folds alter the electronic and ...
    • Computing the volume enclosed by a periodic surface and its variation to model a follower pressure

      Wrinkle networks are ubiquitous buckle-induced delaminations in supported graphene, which locally modify the electronic structure and degrade device performance. Although the strong property-deformation coupling of graphene ...
    • Water-mediated photo-induced reduction of platinum films 

      Fraxedas Calduch, Jordi; Zhang, Kuan; Sepulveda, Borja; Esplandiu, María José; García de Andrés, Xènia; Llorca Piqué, Jordi; Pérez Dieste, Virginia; Escudero, Carlos (2019-06-11)
