Researchers have come to fascinating conclusions on how to produce pure hydrogen, a green energy fuel by splitting water.
Researchers and students in the Graphene Flagship are preparing for two exciting experiments in collaboration with the European Space Agency (ESA) to test the viability of graphene for space applications. Both experiments will launch between 6-17th November 2017, testing graphene in zero-gravity conditions to determine its potential in space applications including light propulsion and thermal management.
A team of researchers has developed sensors which can be sprayed directly onto flat or curved surfaces. The sensors, made from a hybrid of carbon black (CB), graphene, other conductive nano-scale particles, and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), can be networked to extract rich real-time information on the health status of the structure being monitored.
In a novel controllable chemical method, Flagship researchers have created hybrid nanomaterials that can be tailored to have programmable electronic and optical properties – ideal for designing new types of electronics with new functionalities.
Graphene membrane filters could help reduce the energy cost of producing heavy water and decontamination in nuclear power plants by up to one hundred times compared with current technologies.
Researchers developed a 3D-printed square of graphene aerogel that is so light that it can rest on an individual awn of wheat without bending it.
Using the spin of the electrons in graphene and other layered material heterostructures the researchers have produced working devices as a step towards integrating spintronic logic and memory devices.
Researchers developed an integrated supercapacitor from a three-layer all-in-one flexible graphene film.
