The Graphene Special Interest Group (GrapheneSIG) has published a Graphene Think Piece. The document was initiated by the Technology Strategy Board (TSB) to "inform a view on where and how the UK might best gain economic value from graphene related activities."
Vorbeck Materials Corp., a world leader in the field of graphene, has entered into a strategic investment and technology development agreement with In-Q-Tel, Inc. (IQT), the independent strategic investment firm that identifies innovative technology solutions to support the missions of the U.S. Intelligence Community.
Physicists from Umeå University and Humboldt University in Berlin have solved a mystery that has puzzled scientists for half a century. They show with the help of powerful microscopes that the distance between graphite oxide layers gradually increases when water molecules are added. That is because the surface of graphite oxide is not flat, but varies in thickness with "hills" and "valleys" of nanosize. The new findings are published in the scientific journal Nano Letters.
Carbon nanotubes “unzipped” into graphene nanoribbons by a chemical process invented at Rice University are finding use in all kinds of projects, but Rice scientists have now found a chemical-free way to unzip them.
The Graphene Flagship – one of the largest-ever European research initiatives, led by Chalmers – is doubling in size. 66 new partners are being invited to join the consortium following the results of a €9 million competitive call.
For the ever-shrinking transistor, there may be a new game in town. Cornell researchers have demonstrated promising electronic performance from a semiconducting compound with properties that could prove a worthy companion to silicon.
To coincide with Graphene Week 2014, the Graphene Flagship is proud to announce that today one of the largest-ever European research initiatives is doubling in size. 66 new partners are being invited to join the consortium following the results of a €9 million competitive call. While most partners are universities and research institutes, the share of companies, mainly SMEs, involved is increasing.
Four EPFL professors have been invited to participate in the Graphene Flagship. This research initiative has been selected by the EU at the same time as the EPFL-led Human Brain Project to receive significant financial support over the next ten years.
Individual electrons in graphene are massless, but when they move together, it's a different story.
Researchers at Penn State and Shinshu University in Japan have developed a simple, scalable method of making graphene oxide (GO) fibers that are strong, stretchable and can be easily scrolled into yarns with strengths approaching that of Kevlar.
