Abstract :
Different types of self-assembled nanostructures on a given substrate can be synthesized via plasma exposure to produce nanoscale devices. In this paper, we seek to understand the microscopic mechanism related to such interactions of plasma radicals by calculating the polarization-induced interaction between oxygen radicals and a given surface, namely, pyrolytic graphite and graphene.
