Comparison of the monolayer CGO and bacteria. (A) the dynamic map of irradiation on morphological changes of CGO in TEM, the CGO was prepared using HOGO at 4 °C and saturation solution of Pb(NO3)2, as well as pH 0.15, the long red arrow represents the direction of time. (B) crosssection of the monolayer CGOs through TEM, the melting layer is the melting of metal salts under electron beam, the fusion process of melting could be clearly seen from Fig. A. (C) a partial enlarged view of the salt crystals in the B, d is the spacing of the lattice fringe. 0.45 nm is the [111] crystal plane Pb(NO3)2. (D) the picture of bacteria without phospholipids from the paper of Tu et al. published in Nature Nanotech in 201326. The yellow arrow points to the bacteria without phospholipids which was extracted by GOs. (E) the coating layer of graphene, the d = 0.36 is the [002] crystal plane of graphene. (F) the diagram of the graphene roll up.
