Deskripsi

Ion-solid interactions are governed by a range of complex processes the direct experimental observation of which pose their own set of challenges. Here, the authors present a joint experimental and first-principles approach to study and describe the underlying mechanism of electron capture for an ion travelling through layers of graphene with monolayer precision.
