Beyond the age of silicon: A combination of radical chemistry under standard conditions and clean-room lithography can alter the electronic structure of graphene layers permanently through covalent chemical functionalization. The potential change follows the Hammett correlation. This simple method is a promising approach for graphene-based electronics.
