Abstract
We present a short review of the work we have performed over the last decade in the framework of a scientific program dedicated to characterizing the structure, formation and functionalization of graphene layers grown on Ni surfaces. To this aim, several surface science experimental tools were complemented by numerical simulations mainly based on ab initio methods. In a step-by-step process, both the details and the general trends characterizing the investigated systems became progressively clearer, delineating a unique and consistent story.
All together the outcome of this intense effort can be regarded as a good example of the level of understanding of a complex problem it is possible to reach through a persistent and systematic approach in which state-of-the-art methods are employed.
我们简要回顾了过去十年来在一项科学计划框架内开展的工作，该计划致力于表征生长在镍表面的石墨烯层的结构、形成和功能化。为此，我们使用了多种表面科学实验工具，并辅以主要基于 ab initio 方法的数值模拟。在这个循序渐进的过程中，所研究系统的细节和总体趋势都逐渐清晰起来，勾勒出了一个独特而一致的故事。
期刊介绍：
Surface Science is devoted to elucidating the fundamental aspects of chemistry and physics occurring at a wide range of surfaces and interfaces and to disseminating this knowledge fast. The journal welcomes a broad spectrum of topics, including but not limited to:
• model systems (e.g. in Ultra High Vacuum) under well-controlled reactive conditions
• nanoscale science and engineering, including manipulation of matter at the atomic/molecular scale and assembly phenomena
• reactivity of surfaces as related to various applied areas including heterogeneous catalysis, chemistry at electrified interfaces, and semiconductors functionalization
• phenomena at interfaces relevant to energy storage and conversion, and fuels production and utilization
• surface reactivity for environmental protection and pollution remediation
• interactions at surfaces of soft matter, including polymers and biomaterials.
Both experimental and theoretical work, including modeling, is within the scope of the journal. Work published in Surface Science reaches a wide readership, from chemistry and physics to biology and materials science and engineering, providing an excellent forum for cross-fertilization of ideas and broad dissemination of scientific discoveries.
