Abstract

Single-layer graphene stabilization: An efficient methodology to make stable aqueous solutions of single-layer graphene has been demonstrated by exploiting charge-transfer interactions with a coronene tetracarboxylate acceptor molecule (see figure). Microscopic studies reveal exfoliation of few-layer graphene and selective stabilization of single-layer graphene in large quantities.
