DOI: 10.1038/s41563-020-00892-2
Abstract: Efforts to obtain high-strength graphene sheets by near-room-temperature assembly have been frustrated by the misalignment of graphene layers, which degrades mechanical properties. While in-plane stretching can decrease this misalignment, it reappears when releasing the stretch.… read more here.
