This book summarizes the basic physics of graphite and newly
discovered phenomena in this material. The book contains the
knowledge needed to understand novel properties of functionalized
graphite demonstrating the occurrence of remarkable phenomena in
disordered graphite and graphite-based heterostructures. It also
discusses applications of thin graphitic samples in future
electronics. Graphite consists of a stack of nearly decoupled
two-dimensional graphene planes. Because of the low dimensionality
and the presence of Dirac fermions, much of graphite physics
resembles that of graphene. On the other hand, the multi-layered
nature of the graphite structure together with structural and/or
chemical disorder are responsible for phenomena that are not
observed yet in graphene, such as ferromagnetic order and
superconductivity. Each chapter was written by one or more experts
in the field whose contributions were relevant in the (re)discovery
of (un)known phenomena in graphite. The book is intended as
reference for beginners and experts in the field, introducing them
to many aspects of the new physics of graphite, with a fresh
overview of recently found phenomena and the theoretical frames to
understand them.
