Abstract
Isotopic effects are relevant to understand several properties of solids, and have been thoroughly analyzed along the years. These effects may depend on the dimensionality of the considered solid. Here we assess their magnitude for structural properties of graphene, a paradigmatic two-dimensional material. We use path-integral molecular dynamics simulations, a well-suited technique to quantify the influence of nuclear quantum effects on equilibrium variables, especially in cases where anharmonic effects are important. Emphasis is put on interatomic distances and mean-square displacements, as well as on the in-plane area of the graphene layer. At low temperature, the relative difference in C–C distance for 13C and 14C, with respect to 12C, is found to be − 2.5 and − 4.6 × 10−4, respectively, larger than in three-dimensional carbon-based materials such as diamond. For the in-plane area, the relative changes amount to − 3.9 and − 6.9 × 10−4. The magnitude of anharmonicity in the lattice vibrations is estimated by comparing the internal energy and atomic vibrational amplitudes with those derived from a harmonic approximation.Graphical abstract
