Reduced graphene oxide enables stretchable strain sensor for monitoring of physical activities

A new work by scientists at India’s National Institute of Technology Rourkela describes the fabrication of extremely flexible, accurate, and robust strain sensors employing electrochemically produced reduced graphene oxide (rGO).Conventional silicon-based strain...

Graphene assists in taking a step toward ultrafast computers

Researchers at the University of Rochester and the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) have demonstrated a logic gate—the building block of computation and information processing—that operates at femtosecond timescales. The feat was accomplished by...
