Ultra-low energy ion implantation of graphene: substitutional and intercalated atoms KU Leuven
Functionalizing two-dimensional (2D) materials typically involves the modification of their physical and chemical properties. In this context, several approaches are being explored: interaction with various substrates, creation of lattice defects (e.g., vacancies), addition of foreign atoms, clusters or molecules in adsorbed or intercalated forms, substitutional doping, among others. This thesis focuses on the incorporation of substitutional ...
