- Abstract
- Graphene has been the subject of much research, with structural engineering frequently used to harness its various properties. In particular, the concepts of graphene origami and kirigami have inspired the design of quasi-three-dimensional graphene structures, which possess intriguing mechanical, electronic, and optical properties. However, accurate controlling the folding process remains a big challenge. Here, we report the discovery of spontaneous folding growth of graphene on the h-BN substrate via adopting a simple chemical vapor deposition method. Folded edges are formed when two stacked graphene layers share a joint edge at a growth temperature up to 1300 degrees C. Using first-principles density functional theory calculations, the bilayer graphene with folded edges is demonstrated to be more stable than that with open edges. Utilizing this novel growth mode, hexagram bilayer graphene containing entirely sealed edges is eventually realized. Our findings provide a route for designing graphene devices with a new folding dimension.
