In-Depth Information
Revising the recent experimental techniques it can be seen that they are not yet at
the technical level to produce patterns with atomic precisions. In the laser-induced
conversion of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, however, the initial structure C
60
H
30
is very similar to our pattern of Fig.
2.1
. In realistic experimental situations this
initial structure turned into fullerene after removal of hydrogens by laser irradiation
(Boorum et al.
2001
; Scott et al.
2002
). Thus if we include hydrocarbon patterns
as well into the set of initial patterns their experimental production is much more
possible than that of graphene cut out patterns. The graphene cut out patterns can
give ideas for such possible hydrocarbon structures which can transform into the
desired structures after removing the hydrogens by laser irradiation.
