  "abstract": "Graphene nanopatterning on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) has previously been shown using both atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) based techniques, including folding of intrinsic step edges and electrochemical etching or cutting in graphene layers. We here report development of a new technique, combining electrochemical etching and folding using mechanical STM manipulation. Our technique shows unprecedented control of nanoscale folding of graphene in multiple folding steps and could be a route towards STM study of magic angle graphene with in-situ fabricated samples.",
