  • Understanding the motion characteristics of fullerene clusters on the graphene surface is critical for designing surface manipulation systems. Toward this purpose, using the molecular dynamics method, we evaluated six clusters of fullerenes including 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, and 25 molecules on the graphene surface, in the temperature range of 25 to 500 K. First, the surface motion of clusters is studied at 200 K and lower temperatures, in which fullerenes remain as a single group. The trajectories of the motion as well as the diffusion coefficients indicate the reduction of surface mobility as a response to the increase of the fullerene number. The clusters show normal diffusion at the temperature of 25 K, while they follow the super-diffusion regime at higher temperatures. The separation of fullerenes occurs at 300 K and higher temperatures. Due to the increase of vdW attraction with the increase of the fullerene number, the separation of fullerenes in larger clusters occurs at higher temperatures. The thermal energy at 500 K is sufficient to divide the large C60 clusters into smaller clusters. This energy level is related to the saturation of the interaction energy experienced by individual fullerenes, which can be estimated from the potential energy analysis. The results of simulations reveal that the separation occurs at the edge of clusters. Moreover, we studied the thermal stability of multilayer fullerene clusters on graphene. The simulation results indicate the tendency of multilayer clusters to locate on the surface, which implies the wetting property of C60s on the graphene layer. Understanding the motion characteristics of fullerene clusters on the graphene surface is critical for designing surface manipulation systems.
