Temperature Dependence of Phonon Energies and Lifetimes in Single- and Few-layered Graphene

Markos Poulos, Konstantinos Papagelis, Emmenuel N. Koukaras +3

In this work, we have studied the phonon properties of multi-layered graphene with the use of Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations and the k-space Autocorrelation Sequence (k-VACS)…

Strain distribution in WS2 monolayers detected through Polarization-resolved Second Harmonic Generation

George Kourmoulakis, Sotiris Psilodimitrakopoulos, George Miltos Maragkakis +9

Two-dimensional (2D) graphene and graphene-related materials (GRMs) show great promise for future electronic devices. Nevertheless, GRMs result distinct properties under the influe…

Compression behavior of simply-supported and fully embedded monolayer graphene: theory and experiment

Emmanuel N. Koukaras, Charalampos Androulidakis, George Anagnostopoulos +2

Single layer graphene simply-supported on a polymer substrate was subjected to axial compression and its behavior upon loading was monitored with laser Raman spectroscopy (LRS). Th…
