Graphene teams up with black phosphorus and black arsenic to create next-gen detectors

MIPT scientists and their colleagues from Japan and the U.S. have calculated the parameters of photodetectors comprised by layers of graphene and a combination of black phosphorus and black arsenic.These sensors are able to detect radiation with energy less than the...
Lasers enable graphene-on-kevlar textiles for smart protective clothing

Lasers enable graphene-on-kevlar textiles for smart protective clothing

Researchers at Tsinghua University have used lasers to make graphene on Kevlar textiles, creating protective clothing that can record the wearer’s electrocardiogram (ECG) or sense a toxic gas.Prototype of an intelligent protective vest based on the Kevlar-laser...

A new experimental pilot line will integrate graphene and related layered materials (GRMs) in semiconductor platforms

​The European Commission recently invited a group of Graphene Flagship partners and associated members to set up an experimental pilot line to integrate graphene and related layered materials (GRMs) in semiconductor platforms.The project aims to establish a...
