Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
We present the synthesis of few-layer graphenes over a novel Au/hydroxyapatite catalytic system by radio-frequency chemical vapor deposition, with acetylene and methane as the carbon sources. The synthesis time was found to influence linearly the dimensions of the graphitic layers and asymptotically their corresponding thermal decomposition temperature. The resulting multicomponent nanocomposite material formed out of graphene layers, Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) supported on the surface of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles, was found to have good biocompatibility and induce excellent bone cellular proliferation. Such multicomponent composites could find numerous applications in the area of bone regeneration given the excellent biocompatibility, 3D structure, and unique composition. © 2011 American Chemical Society.
