Graphene is often described as a wonder material. It is strong, electrically conductive, thermally efficient, and remarkably ...

Chemical sensors are devices that detect the presence of specific chemical compounds called analytes. The recognition element of the chemical sensor is sensitive to the presence of specific chemical ...

Graphene supercapacitors are moving from lab curiosity to serious contender for the next wave of electric vehicle energy storage. By pairing the near-instant charging of capacitors with the high ...

Following the discovery of graphene, its two-dimensional (2D) structure and its electronic and mechanical properties have gained much attention from the research community. Graphene is extensively ...

(Nanowerk News) An international research team has demonstrated a novel process to modify the structure and properties of graphene. This chemical reaction, known as photocycloaddition, modifies the ...

For the first time, physicists have produced a graphene compound consisting of carbon atoms and a small number of nitrogen atoms in a regular grid of hexagons and triangles. This honeycomb-structured ...

Due to its high electron mobilities at ambient temperature and peculiar electronic behaviors like the quantum hall effect, which imitates massless transportation and results in high superconductivity, ...

Graphene is a new exciting material, which has been characterized as "the wonder material" because of its excellent properties. Graphene gained widespread attention in 2010 when Nobel Prize in physics ...

C60 molecules on a gold substrate appear more complex than their graphene counterparts, but have much more ordinary electronic properties. This is now shown by measurements with ARPES at BESSY II and ...
