A key result from Flagship researchers demonstrates large scale, fully integrable arrays of single photon quantum emitters in layered materials, which may lead to hybrid on-chip photonics devices for networks and sensing.
Rutgers researchers invent device that detects inflammation in lungs.
Apple wants to use graphene membranes to enhance next-gen iPhone speakers or microphones – Apple was granted a new patent (filed in 2015) that details an audio device that uses a diaphragm made from a graphene-enhanced composite material. Apple’s graphene membrane can be used in a speaker, microphone or headphone device. The patent specifically includes an image of an iPhone device as an example application.
UNIST researchers develop digital contact lenses that has the potential to transform diabetes care.
As job titles go Graphene Business Director is a good one. Add the words ‘National Graphene Institute’ and it becomes rather cool. The NGI in Manchester is the centre of graphene research and commercialisation in the UK. If your work in the field of graphene is world-class you’ll probably have a connection with this place.
Recently, scientists made a huge breakthrough in understanding a new property of graphene. This primary property of graphene allows the metal to behave like a liquid. This research could be the first step towards understanding and applying the newly found data for the innovation of thermo-electronic devices, as well as furnishing accumulative model systems to understand exotic phenomena such as high-energy plasmas and black holes.
Researchers from the Institute of low temperature and structure research in Wroclaw, Poland, developed a new efficient white light source that uses graphene foam excitated by a continuous-wave laser.
Rice University scientists have created a rechargeable lithium metal battery with three times the capacity of commercial lithium-ion batteries by resolving something that has long stumped researchers: the dendrite problem.
In the race to produce a quantum computer, a number of projects are seeking a way to create quantum bits—or qubits—that are stable, meaning they are not much affected by changes in their environment. This normally needs highly nonlinear non-dissipative elements capable of functioning at very low temperatures.
In pursuit of this goal, researchers at EPFL’s Laboratory of Photonics and Quantum Measurements LPQM (STI/SB), have investigated a nonlinear graphene-based quantum capacitor, compatible with cryogenic conditions of superconducting circuits, and based on two-dimensional (2D) materials.
Scientists invent bendable supercapacitors that are thinner than a human hair.
