Graphene, the single layered nanomaterial derivative of graphite, has been the focus of research studies across universities and countries. Its unique and superior properties such as strength, conductivity and impermeability to gases offer the potential for numerous applications ranging from medical imaging devices to electrical circuits to touch screens.
A team of researchers from the SuperSTEM facility at Science & Technology Facilities Council’s Daresbury Laboratory and The University of Manchester has found that graphene, a one-atom-thick carbon material, undergoes a self-mending process to repair holes.
Researchers at Columbia Engineering have discovered the optical nonlinear property of graphene that could pave the way for low-power telecommunication devices. Silicon-based photonic circuits are passive systems.
Graphene Laboratories, Inc. has made several new developments this summer, demonstrating their continued success in the commercialization of graphene materials. Most notably, their production capabilities are up with exp...
Dr. Kostya Novoselov, one of the discoverers of graphene, spoke about its unique properties and potential applications to 247Bull.com, the online publisher of significant market trends and economical events. Dr. Novoselov discovered graphene along with fellow researcher Andre Geim in 2004. The duo won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 2010.
Researchers of the California Nanosystems Institute at UCLA along with researchers from UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science and UCLA Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry have developed a scalable technique for the damage-free fabrication of self-aligned graphene transistors.
The transition of graphite to graphene has always been a random process. Graphene, the single-layered structure comprising carbon atoms, was first isolated at the University of Manchester by stripping off the top layer from graphite with a scotch tape.
Thomas Edison developed the rechargeable nickel-iron battery in the early 1900s. Known for its durability and reliability, the battery was used as a back-up source for power requirements of the mines and railroad industries.
National Institute of Standards and Technology(NIST) researchers have discovered that when graphene is subjected to mechanical strain, forming it into a drumhead, the effect of magnetic fields are mimicked, creating a quantum dot, which is an exotic semiconductor type having a large number of potential applications in electronic devices. The June 22, 2012 issue of Science has published the results.
Vorbeck Materials and its partners Princeton University and Pacific Northwest National Labs (PNNL) have won the R&D 100 Award, an annual award instituted by R&D Magazine in honor of 100 most important technological and scientific products and innovations of the year.
