41 graphene: why it may have taken so long fluctuations "kill" a 2D crystal Finally, we remark on the strict 2D nature of graphene from a structural viewpoint. The existence of finite 2D flakes of graphene with crystalline order at finite temperature Landau & does Lifschitz, not instatistical any wayphysics, violate the Hohenberg-Mermin-Wagner-Coleman theorem 3 rd ed.,1980, whichpart rules I, 137 out& the 138, breaking pp of a continuous symmetry in two dimensions. This is because the theorem only asserts a slow power law decay of the crystalline (i.e., positional order) correlation with distance, and hence, very large flat 2D crystalline flakes of graphene (or for that matter of any material) are manifestly allowed by this theorem. In fact, a 2D Wigner crystal, i.e., a 2D hexagonal classical crystal of electrons in a very low-density limit, was experimentally observed more than 30 years ago (Grimes and Adams, 1979) on the surface of liquid 4He (where the electrons were bound by their image force). A simple back of the envelope calculation shows that the size of the graphene flake has to be unphysically large for this theorem to have any effect on its crystalline nature (Thompson-Flagg et al., 2009). There is nothing mysterious or remarkable about having finite 2D crystals with quasi-long-range positional order at finite temperatures, which is what we have in 2D graphene flakes. Castro-Neto et al., Rev. Mod. Phys 2011 "According to the so-called Mermin Wagner theorem 1, longwavelength fluctuations destroy the long-range order of 2D the ripples of graphene crystals. Similarly, 2D membranes embedded in a 3D space have a tendency to be crumpled 2. These fluctuations can, however, be suppressed by anharmonic coupling between bending and stretching modes meaning that a 2D membrane can exist but will exhibit strong height fluctuations." Katsnelson et al., Nature Mat. (2007)
