FIRST-PRINCIPLES STUDY OF GA-N CO-DOPED GRAPHENE NANOSTRUCTURES

Abstract

Graphene's physical properties have made it interesting and used in a range of fields of science and technology, such as medicine, nanoelectronics, sensors, and desalination. A simple method for manufacturing graphene with scotch tape was discovered in 2004. Graphene is a two- dimensional material, one carbon atom thick. The structure of graphene is provided as a hexagonal lattice, where the carbon atoms are linked by sp2 bonds.
