Graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) arise from the insertion of atoms, ions or molecules between the layers of graphite, profoundly altering its structural, electronic and chemical characteristics ...

The beginning of this project dates back to 2012-2013, when team leader Ayrat Dimiev was working at Rice University, Houston, TX, USA, with Professor James Tour. Together with Natnael Behabtu, at that ...

Graphite exfoliation and intercalation materials comprise a class of layered carbon derivatives engineered by the insertion of guest species and the controlled separation of graphite planes.

The physical characteristic known as intercalation is essential for operating many contemporary, cutting-edge technologies, ranging from lithium-ion batteries to next-generation superconductors. Image ...
