“We recognized that while graphene itself is a remarkable material due to its strength, flexibility and conductivity, there were still unexpected avenues that could unlock new functionality ...

Graphene has potential applications in the energy sector, including energy storage, solar panels, fuel cells, batteries, and thermal management due to its high conductivity, transparency ... due to ...

They were studying different aspects of graphene – sheets of carbon only one atom thick – but both made the same estimate about how hard it should be for an electric current flowing through ...

Electron transport in bilayer graphene exhibits a pronounced dependence on edge states and a nonlocal transport mechanism, according to a study led by Professor Gil-Ho Lee and Ph.D. candidate ...

The graphene material can improve the performance of traditional batteries, such as lithium-ion batteries, by increasing the battery's conductivity and allowing for faster charge and discharge cycles.

which confines the graphene carriers and creates quantized quantum dot like energy levels. The background is a colored scanning electron microscopy image of the graphene drumheads fabricated from ...

In this case, the material was graphene—a so-called two-dimensional material composed of a single layer of carbon atoms. Instead of a stone, the scientists used laser pulses, focusing them on a ...

"We sought to understand how electrons and phonons 'talk' to each other within two twisted graphene layers," says Tielrooij. Electrons are the well-known charge and energy carriers associated with ...
