Scientists just mapped platinum atoms — and it could transform catalysis forever
A precious metal used everywhere from car exhaust systems to fuel cells, platinum is an incredibly efficient catalyst—but it's costly and carbon-intensive. Now, a serendipitous collaboration between scientists at ETH Zurich and other European institutions has...
First Graphene tests graphene for next-gen hydrogen storage tanks
First Graphene (ASX:FGR) has updated that it is progressing on its HyPStore Project, reportedly valued at $3.72 million, aimed at developing advanced hydrogen storage tanks. Testing is now underway at the company’s research and development laboratory in Manchester,...
Researchers study interactions between light and heavy electrons in twisted trilayer graphene
In systems with multiple energy bands, the interplay between electrons with different effective masses drives correlated phenomena that do not occur in single-band systems. Magic-angle twisted trilayer graphene is a tunable platform for exploring such effects,...
Researchers demonstrate integration of QD-functionalized GFETs with CVD graphene on a 200 mm CMOS wafer platform
Researchers at AMO, Graphenea Semiconductor and Emberion recently demonstrated a 200 mm processing platform for the large-scale production of graphene field-effect transistor-quantum dot (GFET-QD) hybrid photodetectors. Such sensors have many potential...
Argo Living Soils initiates first graphene purchase order
Argo Living Soils has announced that it is finalizing its first 1000 liter supply order of a Graphene oxide liquid product. The Graphene oxide liquid consists of high-grade 0.04% Graphene oxide liquid (4 Grams/L) and will be used as a liquid additive for concrete...
Researchers create rGO/MOS2 nanoflower cathodes for aluminum-ion batteries
Researchers from China's Jiangnan University and Dalian University of Technology have designed MoS2/rGO nanoflowers as cathodes for aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs). Aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs) show promise thanks to their high aluminum reserves, high theoretical...
Researchers combine graphene and PEDOT:PSS to create skin-like self-healing electronic material
Researchers at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) have developed a new electronic material that behaves very similarly to human skin and could be used in soft robotics, medicine, and health care. Conceptual illustration of the various applications of the...
