Technology Update

Although simple models can be used to predict many important physical properties – such as conductance – in so-called alternant hydrocarbons, the same is not true for their non-alternant counterparts

Researchers at the Pohang University of Science and Technology in Korea have come up with a new way to transfer graphene grown by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) onto substrates without using water

Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania and SPAWAR Systems in San Diego have developed a new method to fabricate large arrays of graphene field effect transistors

Researchers in the US, Japan and Spain have discovered that they can change the stacking order in trilayer graphene

At small angles of mismatch, the van der Waals interaction between graphene and the substrate hexagonal boron nitride on which it is placed or grown
