Properties
The essential properties of graphene have long been known, as they determine those of graphite. Graphite is a stack of graphene planes, with a 60° rotation of one plane in relation to the other (Bernal stacking).
In graphene planes, each atom has a sp2 hybridization, which imposes a honeycomb lattice. and establishes three σ-bonds with its three nearest neighbors. The fourth electron propagates through the π bands derived from the pz orbitals perpendicular to the atomic plane; this is what makes graphene a conductive material. In addition,...
