High rake angle orthogonal machining of highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) parallel to the basal plane was carried out to synthesize few layers of graphene. The quality of the graphite sheets was found to be an alliance of any pre-existing defects in the HOPG and the nature of the machining pr...
