Structural reconstruction of the graphene monovacancy.

Two distinct configurations of the monovacancy in graphene have been observed using aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy (AC-TEM) at 80 kV. The predicted lower energy asymmetric monovacancy (MV), exhibiting a Jahn-Teller reconstruction (r-MV), has been observed, but in addition, we...
