High-Resolution Imaging of Single-Layer Graphene

The high-resolution image below was taken by AFM and shows an assembly of single-layer, functionalized graphene sheets on a surface. Some of the sheets that we make in our labs are many square micrometers large. The thickness of each sheet is less than 1 nm.

Have a look at the crisp image! The original is even better: 1024×1024 pixels—too big for this web page.
