2D materials sandwich promises high energy density flexible supercaps
Using a simple and highly scalable fabrication technique, a team of Chinese researchers has combined the exceptional mechanical and electrical properties of Phosphorene and Graphene nanosheets to create a novel type of Micro SuperCapacitors (PG-MSC).
Nanosheets Make Batteries Better
Researchers in Singapore have invented a way to produce more durable and longer lasting lithium-ion batteries.
7 Ways Nanotechnology Could Combat Climate Change
This article looks at the 7 ways that nanotechnology can help to combat and possibly stop climate change.
Graphene-based dialysis membrane filters 10 times faster than current materials
In the latest graphene-enabled innovation, a team of MIT engineers has potentially revolutionized the process of dialysis by creating a new membrane from this wonder material that is able to filter nanometer-sized molecules from solutions up to 10 times faster than current dialysis systems.
Researchers create very small sensor using 'white graphene'
Researchers have found a way to create and clean tiny mechanical sensors in a scalable manner. They created these sensors by suspending a two-dimensional sheet of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), or ‘white graphene’ over small holes in a silicon substrate. This innovation could lead to extremely small gas and pressure sensors for future electronics.
Chinese team uses graphene oxide to create moisture-responsive spider robots
Researchers from China have turned a sheet of graphene oxide into a material that bends when exposed to moisture, which they used to create a spider-like crawler and claw robot that move in response to changing humidity conditions without the need for any external power.
Advanced Materials: The DNA of Disruption
The need to make products faster, stronger, smaller and lighter is driving the development of new and enhanced materials with properties out of reach of prior generations. Goldman Sachs Research’s Craig Sainsbury discusses three of the most promising – graphene, nanotechnology and OLEDs – and their potential applications from cancer treatment to water filtration.
Researchers use graphene oxide to design a novel anti-cancer system
Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Pune have used graphene oxideto develop a novel cancer drug delivery system.
Graphene nanocapsules improve Li-S battery electrodes
Researchers have designed a novel cathode architecture for lithium-sulphide batteries that consists of crystalline di-lithium sulphide nanoparticles encapsulated in few-layer graphene.
