Multi-Component Molecular Propeller Designed to Operate on Solid Surfaces

A group of researchers from Ohio University, Argonne National Laboratory, Universitié de Toulouse in France, and Nara Institute of Science and Technology in Japan, guided by Ohio Professor of Physics Saw-Wai Hla and Prof. Gwenael Rapenne from Toulouse, created a molecular propeller that induces unidirectional rotations on a material surface upon being energized.

Strong and Weak GO Flakes can be Combined to Produce Better GO Paper

According to presumptions, developing a super-strong material from nano-scale building blocks requires the highest quality building blocks to start with. However, that is wrong—at least when researchers work with “flakes” of graphene oxide (GO).
