Graphene’s Ability to Conduct Electricity Gains Popularity

Graphene, a two-dimensional wonder-material, has earned immense popularity due to its exceptional capability to conduct electricity. Researchers from the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) have used rod-shaped bacteria to add nanoscale ripples in the material, allowing it to conduct electrons differently in perpendicular directions. The bacteria is precisely arranged in an electric field and then vacuum-shrunk below a graphene sheet.

Berkeley Lab Create Novel Method to Develop Atomically Thin Transistors and Circuits

Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have formulated a method to chemically build circuits and transistors that measure just a few atoms in thickness. This progress has the potential for advanced computing technologies and electronics - even paper-thin gadgets.

Scientists Develop New Method to Improve Cathode Materials by Creating Oxygen Vacancies

A new method to improve the strength and energy storing ability of a specific type of “lithium-rich” cathode materials has been demonstrated by an international group of scientists. They used a carbon dioxide-based gas mixture to produce oxygen vacancies at the surface of the material. According to the researchers, the treatment enhanced the energy density, which is the amount of energy stored per unit mass of the cathode material by up to 30 to 40%.
