Nanostructured Graphene
Forms, Synthesis, Properties and Applicationsby
Liqiang Lu
1. Constructing nanostructured graphene is like cutting and unfolding paper but with a “nanoscissor” or a “nanohand”.
2. A perfect single-layer graphene quantum dot is still two-dimensional (Chapter 2).
3. The specific capacity should be based on the overall electrode instead of only on the active material (Chapter 3 & 5).
4. Nanostructures enhance the energy density, power density and lifetime of batteries (Chapter 3-5).
5. After endless mountains and rivers (the self-assembly and CVD growth of macroporous graphene) wondering whether there is a way out, suddenly one encounters the shade of a willow, bright flowers and a lovely village (solid-state growth of nanoporous graphene)–a poem by Lu You (山重水复疑无路, 柳暗花明又一村–陆游 (Chapter 4).
6. The easiest way to convert amorphous carbon to graphene at room temperature is adding a metal catalyst (Chapter 6).
7. Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence (Chapter 2 & 6).
8. Precisely synthesized graphene quantum dots can disclose their photoluminescence properties (Chapter 7).
9. An unexpected incident in a well-designed experiment is sometimes like the fallen apple was to Newton.
10. Listening to a presentation might be more inspirational than reading a paper, so an interactive video presentation is suggested to be counted as a scientific publication in Web of Science and Google Scholar.
