Abstract:
Micro-Raman scattering from folds in single-layer graphene sheets finds a D-band at the fold for both incommensurate and commensurate folding, while the parent single-layer graphene lacks a D-band. A coupled elastic-continuum/tight-binding calculation suggests that this D-band arises from the spatially inhomogeneous curvature around a fold in a graphene sheet. The polarization dependence of the fold-induced D-band further reveals that the inhomogeneous curvature acts as a very smooth, ideal one-dimensional defect along the folding direction.

Raman Spectroscopy Instrumentation: Overview
The monochromatic laser source, typically using visible or near-infrared radiation, generates a highly focused beam of light. This light interacts with the molecules of the sample, scattering some of the light. Liquid and gaseous samples are usually tested in ordinary glass capillaries, while solids can be analyzed as powders packed in capillaries or as potassium...
