Concentric and spiral few-layer graphene : growth driven by interfacial nucleation vs screw dislocation by Tay, Roland Yingjie, Park, Hyo Ju, Lin, Jinjun, Ng, Zhi Kia, Jing, Lin, Li, Hongling, Zhu, Minmin, Tsang, Siu Hon, Lee, Zonghoon, Teo, Edwin Hang Tong

“…This contrasts with FLG formed by interfacial nucleation where turbostratic stacking of the entire adlayer may exist. In both growth scenarios, the second layer (either top or bottom) can grow across the grain boundaries of the initial monolayer domains, forming partial regions with turbostratic stacking configuration due to weak interlayer van der Waals interactions. …”
