Abstract
The relative orientation between atomic lattices in twisted bilayer graphene opens up a whole new field of rich physics. So, the study of self-assembled twisted bilayer graphene gives deep insight into its underlying growth process. Cuts in monolayer graphene via the atomic force microscopy technique are used to start self-assembly and to generate a folding process. The final configurations for this self-assembly process are investigated. Here, the focus is on structures that arise from one cut. During the self-assembly, these structures not only move forward but also rotate. As it turns out, the final positions for all studied structures can be assigned to commensurate interlayer configurations.
