Gap Opening

Controlling the stacking order in bilayer graphene (BLG) allows realising unique physical properties. In particular, the possibility of tuning the band gap in AB-stacked BLG (AB-BLG) has a great technological importance for electronic and optoelectronics applications. Most of current methods to produce AB-BLG suffer from inhomogeneous layer thickness and/or coexistence with twisted BLG. Here, we demonstrate a method to synthesise highly pure large-area AB-BLG by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) using Cu-Ni films. Increasing the reaction time resulted in a gradual increase of the AB stacking, with the BLG eventually free from twist regions for the longer times (99.4 % of BLG has AB stacking), due to catalyst-assisted continuous BLG reconstruction driven by carbon dissolution-segregation processes. The band gap opening was confirmed by the electrical measurements. The concept of the continuous reconstruction to achieve highly pure AB-BLG offers a new strategy to control the stacking order of catalytically grown two-dimensional materials.

Frustrated Lewis Pair

Over the last decade there has been an explosion in the reactivity and applications of frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) chemistry. Despite this, the Lewis acids (LAs) in these transformations are often boranes, with heavier p -block elements receiving surprisingly little attention. The novel LA Bn 3 SnOTf ( 1 ) has been synthesized from simple, inexpensive starting materials and has been spectroscopically and structurally characterized. Subtle modulation of the electronics at the tin centre has led to an increase in its Lewis acidity in comparison with previously reported R 3 SnOTf LAs, and has facilitated low temperature hydrogen activation and imine hydrogenation. Deactivation pathways of the R 3 Sn + LA core have also been investigated. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Frustrated Lewis pair chemistry’.
