Graphene oxide (GO) is expected to be one of the most promising adsorbents for metal ions, including radioactive nuclides in aqueous solutions. Large-area and single-layer graphene oxide (SLGO) grown on
-Al

(0001) was used as a model structure of GO since the aggregation and re-stacking of the GO sheets prevent the adequate analysis of the adsorption state. The SLGO film was obtained by oxidizing monolayer graphene grown by metal-free chemical vapor deposition on the

O
(0001) surface, and the adsorption state was determined by surface analytical techniques. It was clarified that Cs adsorbs on oxygen functional groups by substituting with H atoms from carboxyl and hydroxy groups. It is also estimated that the weight adsorption capacity of SLGO in the 1.0 mol/L-Cs aqueous solution is as much as approximately 70 wt%. It has been demonstrated that GO has great potential to be a promising adsorbent for Cs in aqueous solutions.

Heteroatom doping into graphene has attracted wide attention for tailoring electronic, physical, and chemical properties of graphene. In order to achieve the application of doped graphene in an effective manner, it is essential to use films with a large area and a precise number of layers. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a technique for heteroatom doping directly into CVD-grown large-area graphene. In this study, high-energy heavy ion irradiation to the heterostructure of the KCl layer and the CVD-grown single-layer graphene film allowed the formation of Cl-C chemical bonds. The spectroscopic analysis indicated that the doping of graphene by Cl atoms, at a concentration of 10.2 atom %, had occurred as a result of the irradiation of 3.0 MeV Ni
ions at a fluence of up to 10
ions/cm
. It is shown that Cl atoms are chemically adsorbed on graphene by the formation of C-Cl bonds with the chemical reconstruction of graphene from sp

The graphene layer was directly grown on the bottom electrode by chemical vapor deposition. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy showed that the permalloy surface fully covered with a few-layer graphene is kept free from oxidation and contamination even after dispensing and removing photoresist. This enabled fabrication of the current perpendicular to plane spin valve devices with a well-defined interface between graphene and permalloy. Spin-dependent electron transport measurements revealed a distinct spin valve effect in the devices. The magnetotransport ratio was 0.8% at room temperature and increased to 1.75% at 50 K. Linear current-voltage characteristics and resistance increase with temperature indicated that ohmic contacts are realized at the relevant interfaces.

Several configurations of interfaces were considered, and the most stable ones were used for electronic structure analysis. All NT/Co interfaces were found to be more energetically favorable than NT/Ni, and conductive carbon nanotubes demonstrates lightly stronger bonding than semiconducting ones. The presence of contact-induced spin polarization was established for all nanocomposites. It was found that the contact-induced polarization of BNNT leads to the appearance of local conductivity in the vicinity of the interface while the rest of the nanotube lattice remains to be insulating.

It was found that curved and hollow-caged 0D and 1D nanoclusters are metastable and bear unique atomic and electronic structure and mechanical properties. Under different types of mechanical loads the nanoclusters display ultrastrong and superelastic properties. The curvature of the hollow cage nanoclusters leads to the redistribution of the metal d states near the Fermi level. The extremely high spin states allow one to use Fe-porphyrin nanoclusters as molecular supermagnets and logic quantum gates for holonomic quantum computations.

Torr sec), a single epitaxial layer of graphene was formed, but no further growth was observed at higher exposure. The spin-summed spectrum of graphene/Ni(111) had a new peak at the Fermi level and three weak features corresponding to the molecular orbitals of graphene. Spin asymmetry analysis of the SPMDS spectra revealed that the spin polarization of the electronic states shown by the new peak was parallel to the majority spin of the Ni substrate. The appearance and spin polarization of the new electronic states are discussed in terms of the hybridization of graphene pi orbitals and Ni d orbitals.

Narrow graphene nanoribbons terminated with fluorine on one side demonstrate a considerable out-of-plane bend, suggesting that the nanoribbon is a fraction of a conical surface. It is shown that the intrinsic curvature of the narrow nanoribbons destroys the periodicity and results in a systematic cancellation of the dipole moment. The in- and out-of-plane curvature of thin arcs allows their closure in nanorings or cone fragments of giant diameter.

Small characteristic energies of less than 10's meV are derived from the temperature dependences of the characteristic voltage in the exponential relationship. Considering the voltage drops between Co nanoparticles and also the effect of cotunneling on the energy values, the characteristic energies for the voltage-induced degradation of the spin polarization are found to show a satisfactory agreement with that for the thermally-induced one. It can reasonably be expected that the onset of magnetic disorder to the localized d-electron spins at the interface region of the C
