…ranging from diamond to gallium arsenide, are being explored as platforms for creating and manipulating qubits. Bilayer graphene (two layers of graphene, which is a two-dimensional arrangement of carbon atoms…
Schematic of a valley-spiral in magnetically encapsulated twisted bilayer graphene. Credit: Jose Lado By combining ferromagnets and two rotated layers of graphene, researchers open up a new platform for strongly…
…positioning of transition-metal dopants in graphene. The produced graphene-dopant complexes can exhibit atomic-like behavior, inducing desired properties in the graphene. “What could you build if you could put any atoms…
…are very different from those of graphene. Surprising Metallic Properties In contrast to graphene and other forms of carbon, the new Biphenylene network — as the new material is named…
…with that of its better-known cousin graphene. Structurally, graphene and h-BN are nearly identical. In each, atoms are arranged in a flat lattice of interconnecting hexagons. In graphene, all the…
An international team, co-led by researchers at The University of Manchester’s National Graphene Institute (NGI) in the UK and the Penn State College of Engineering in the US, has developed…
…by Stacked Graphene’s Unique Physics The pair of scientists stumbled upon this new perspective when they were looking into something quite different, research on sheets of graphene—single atomic layers of…
A University of Washington-led team has discovered that, by stacking a sheet of graphene onto bulk graphite at a small twist angle (top), “exotic” properties present at the graphene-graphite interface…
Schematic representation showing how a graphene layer protects against water. The electrical current flowing along the edge of the topological insulator indenene remains completely unaffected by external influences. Credit: Jörg…
Adding graphene to titanium dioxide in solar cells increases conductivity and boosts circuit current by 52.4%. In an effort to increase solar cell efficiency, scientists at Michigan Technological University are…
Combining wonder material graphene with other stunning one-atom-thick materials could create the next generation of solar cells and optoelectronic devices, scientists have revealed. Credit: University of Manchester Using graphene with…
…from Monash University have developed a spaser using graphene and carbon nanotubes, showing that graphene and carbon nanotubes can interact and transfer energy to each other through light. A new…
…2-D materials was dominated by a simple thin sheet of carbon, a layered form of carbon atoms constructed to resemble honeycomb, called graphene. Graphene was globally heralded as a wonder…
By observing the unusual movement of electrons in graphene, scientists have uncovered a new understanding of the physics of conductive materials. Graphene is many times more conductive than copper thanks,…
…laser-building graphene into both sides of the polyimide, leaving a fine, three-dimensional lattice of the polymer to reinforce the graphene foam. Laser-building at different temperatures resulted in a thick forest…
…was possible to integrate the two materials into a single heterostructure, Hersam’s lab grew both graphene and borophene on the same substrate. They grew the graphene first, since it grows…
