Is graphene nano?

I've been working with graphene for over a year now, and before that I was working with photonic nanostructures. For me the transition from nano to graphene was natural. After the initial excitement and a period of learning that comes with a new job, I've recently started to follow my old nano-community again. Although to me it has seemed that the fields of nano and graphene are intertwined, I have now started to think that maybe they are two different worlds. So I think this is the proper place for me to ask the following: do you consider graphene to be part of the nano world? Do you have an interest in graphene?


I am very curious to find out!

  • The 3 nm is probably a layer of some other material that has adsorbed to the graphene surface, like water.

  • Hi Marko, as i know the interplanner distance is arround 0.3nm, but some paper discussed by AFM image, a single/bilayer graphene have 3nm or more experimentally. 

  • Actually, the thickness is (theoretically) 0.3nm. I was just wandering whether people on this site have an interest in graphene, or is "nano" considered to be reserved more for metal, dielectric, and biological particles?

  • Dear sir,

    Yes it is. Its thickness(3rd dimension) is about 3nm.
