Hi,

Thank you for your quick response, but is it not required to satisfy the
dangling bonds with h2 passivation (as I see just the C atoms here). The
other query I had is Graphene is Semi Metallic, it can show semi conducting
properties if designed in ArmChair configuration with proper geometry, is
there any specific thing to keep in mind if I want to explore that aspect.
