Graphene is the thinnest and strongest 2D material, and the large-area suspended graphene (LSG) shows remarkable durability against the laser prepulse and pedestal that potentially destroy such extremely thin targets. We report monoenergetic and energetic ion acceleration with our novel nanolayer target mounted on LSG.
