In this work we present a simple pathway to obtain large single-crystal graphene on copper (Cu) foils with high growth rates using a commercially available cold-wall chemical vapour deposition (CVD) reactor.Weshow that graphene nucleation density is drastically reduced and crystal growth is accelerated when: (i) using ex situ oxidized foils;...

The surface structure of Few-Layer Graphene (FLG) epitaxially grown on the C-face of SiC has been investigated by TM-AFM in ambient air and upon interaction with dilute aqueous solutions of bio-organic molecules (l-methionine and dimethyl sulfoxide, DMSO). Before interaction with molecular solutions, we observe nicely ordered, three-fold...

The exploitation of graphene for neuro-interfacing applications requires a complete, yet missing, understanding of neuron-graphene interaction. Here, we have explored the interplay between the carbon based interface and neuronal networks during the complete developmental phase at whole network scale. To this purpose, we have, first,...
