Various two-dimensional (2D) carbon allotropes with non-alternant topologies, such as pentaheptites and phagraphene, have been proposed. Predictions indicate that these metastable carbon polymorphs, which contain odd-numbered rings, possess unusual (opto)electronic properties. However, none of these materials has been achieved experimentally due to synthetic challenges. In this work, by using on-surface synthesis, nanoribbons of the non-alternant graphene allotropes, phagraphene and tetra-penta-hepta(TPH)-graphene have been obtained by dehydrogenative C-C coupling of 2,6-polyazulene chains. These chains were formed in a preceding reaction step via on-surface Ullmann coupling of 2,6-dibromoazulene. Low-temperature scanning probe microscopies with CO-functionalized tip and density functional theory calculations have been used to elucidate their structural properties. <br>

Recent experimental success in the realization of two-dimensional (2D) magnetism has invigorated the search for new 2D magnetic materials with a large magnetocrystalline anisotropy, high Curie temperature, and high carrier mobility.

Abstract We investigate the two-dimensional melting of deformable polymeric particles with multi-body interactions described by the Voronoi model. We report machine learning evidence for the existence of the intermediate hexatic phase in this system, and extract the critical exponent $\nu\approx0.65$ for the divergence of the correlation length of the associated solid-hexatic phase transition. Moreover, we clarify the discontinuous nature of the hexatic-liquid phase transition in this system. These findings are achieved by directly analyzing system's spatial configurations with two generic machine learning approaches developed in this work, dubbed ``scanning-probe'' via which the possible existence of intermediate phases can be efficiently detected, and ``information-concealing'' via which the critical scaling of the correlation length in the vicinity of generic continuous phase transition can be extracted. Our work provides new physical insights into the fundamental nature of the two-dimensional melting of deformable particles, and establishes a new type of generic toolbox to investigate fundamental properties of phase transitions in various complex systems.

Cross-gratings or two-dimensional gratings have found applications in precision displacement measurement for nanoscale machine tools or mask-wafer alignment in photo-lithography. The orthogonality of displacement measurement or alignment in two perpendicular directions is assured by the orthogonality of the grating grooves. Once the grooves are not exactly normal to each other, it should be calibrated before measurement or alignment to guarantee the accuracy. Scanning probe microscopy (SPM) and optical diffractometry (OD) are commonly used for highly accurate calibration of cross-grating orthogonality. In this paper, two methods based on diffraction are proposed for middle accuracy measurement at relative higher speed. At first, we briefly explain the configuration of each method. The calibration results of cross-gratings are shown. We also discuss the results of uncertainty analysis and the cause of main uncertainty sources.
