Graphene sheets with 5- or 7-membered rings form cone or saddle shapes, affecting curvature and rigidity. A new method helps study their complex mechanics. (Nanowerk News) Graphene sheets (GS) are two ...

In bottom-up fabrication, sheet graphene is grown on a metal substrate such as copper or nickel foil by heating hydrocarbon gases such as methane at around 1000°C. The metal substrate acts as a ...

A research team has successfully developed a new method that can prevent the crossover of large fuel molecules and suppress the degradation of electrodes in advanced fuel cell technology using ...

With some careful twisting and stacking, MIT physicists have revealed a new and exotic property in “magic-angle” graphene: superconductivity that can be turned on and off with an electric pulse, much ...

In a promising breakthrough, MIT physicists have today reported their observation of new key evidence of unconventional ...

In a groundbreaking application of graphene technology, the first graphene-based solar cells have been successfully utilized ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago have potentially found a new method of passively detecting the coronavirus using sheets of graphene, one of the thinnest and strongest materials on ...

Glass-filled polypropylene is already a very commonly used plastic for automotive parts, but could it be improved? Well, yes.

The solar cells combine multilayer graphene with silicon wafers, harvesting both solar and kinetic energy for continuous operation. Tests show the cells can autonomously power supercapacitors embedded ...

I never know what to expect when I tell people I study graphene – some have never heard of it, while others have seen some version of these headlines and inevitably ask, “So what’s the holdup?” ...
