Unique Properties of Graphene Could Revolutionize Photonic and Opto-Electronic Devices

The importance of graphene can hardly be overstated. Graphene is the thinnest material comprised of atoms. It is only one atomic layer thick and hence an almost ideal representation of a two-dimensional material in our three-dimensional world.

Interfacing System Can Help Differentiate Single Cancerous Cell from Normal Cell Using Graphene

Researchers from the University of Illinois at Chicago have shown that they can distinguish a single hyperactive cancerous cell from a normal cell by interfacing brain cells onto graphene. This could lead to the development of a simple, noninvasive tool for early diagnosis of cancer.

Significant Studies on Surface Reactions to Develop Bio-Nano Technologies and Functional Materials

Things that occur on the surface are frequently given short shrift when compared to what occurs on inside. However, with chemical reactions, what happens on the surface can mean the difference between a working material and one that refuses to carry out its duty.

Producing Perfect Graphene Coatings

Graphene is an ultra-thin material that is just a single carbon atom in thickness, and has the potential to be used impressive applications such as friction-free, wear-resistant coatings. But first, large sheets of graphene have to be manufactured under precisely controlled conditions.
