“The Princess and the Pea” at the Nanoscale: Wrinkling and Delamination of Graphene on Nanoparticles
Thin membranes exhibit complex responses to external forces or geometrical constraints. A familiar example is the wrinkling, exhibited by human skin, plant leaves, and fabrics, that results from the relative ease of bending versus stretching. Here, we study the wrinkling of graphene, the thinnest an...
