Quantum dots : A sequential, single‐electron charging process of monodisperse graphene quantum dots (GQDs) encapsulated in a dodecylamine envelope, facilitating a capacitance of a few attofarads is reported. The average GQDs dimensions, as ascertained from high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy, of about 3±0.3, 2.6±0.2, and 2.2±0.3 nm control this unprecedented behavior (see picture).
