Abstract

In MODULE 3- Structures in the "Turning Fruit Juice into Graphene Quantum Dots" Supplementary Lesson Plans, crystal structures and systems are investigated. This module relates back to graphene and how its structure relates back to its unique properties in comparison to other forms of carbon (i.e. graphite, diamond, and carbon nanotubes). Activities within this module include using the Crystal Viewer tool on nanoHUB, so that student can interact with and get familiar with using simulation tools.
