people mention it as The Miracle material - even before inventors earned Nobel

Graphene is a two dimensional tiny sheet. A…

Such promising physics have made graphene the most studied substance of the last decade, particularly in nanotechnology. In 2010, the researchers who first isolated it shared the Nobel Prize. Yet, while graphene is many things, it is not piezoelectric.…

Researchers developed a new process to make flexible transistors from graphene. The new process enable high electron mobility and high frequencies (in the Ghz range). The process uses a graphene in a solution and places it on polyimide substrates:

Researchers from the University of Bristol have measured and identified for the first time the stress and strain shear modulus and internal friction of graphene sheets. Graphene is a material that has many potential groundbreaking uses in the electronics and composites industry. The research, in collaboration with the US Office of Naval Research, is published in Nano Letters.…

Wonder material graphene has been touted as the next silicon, with one major problem – it is too conductive to be used in computer chips. Now scientists from The University of Manchester have given its prospects a new lifeline.

Due to rapidly increasing power densities in electronics, managing the resulting heat has become one of the most critical issues in computer and semiconductor design (see our previous Nanowerk Spotlight: "Nanotechnology to the ...…

A team of researchers led by Professor Sir Andre Geim demonstrated a graphene-Oxide based membrane that is impermeable to all gases and liquids (i.e. it's vacuum-tight) - but water can evaporate though it as if there's no membrane at all. This membrane can be used to remove water from a mixture or container. The team sealed a bottle of Vodka with such a membrane and this resulted in water evaporating - and the drink became stronger with time:…

The organizers of Graphene 2012are pleased to announce the upcoming International Conference on Graphene to be held in Brussels (Belgium), from April 10-13 at the Brussels44Center.

The call for abstracts (oral request) is now open at the Graphene 2012 website (www.grapheneconf.com) and will close on February 10, 2012. Post-deadline Abstract Submission (Poster…

The Electronic Materials Research Institute (eMRI) at Northeastern University will develop a graphene-based technology for use in low-cost infrared imaging applications for the US military. eMRI signed the research agreement with the United States Army Research Laboratory at Adelphi, Md. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is also collaborating in this project.



According to researchers from eMRI, graphene can potentially revolutionize infrared cameras or night…

Vorbeck Materials completed its series 3 financing - with a total value of $10 million. The round included 17 investors and was led by Black Powder and Fairbridge Venture Partners. Vorbeck also says that the Siren anti-theft packaging device, which uses their graphene-based Vor-Ink circuitry are now on the shelves of major retailers:…

Researchers from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have discovered that graphene foam can outperform leading commercial gas sensors in detecting potentially dangerous and explosive chemicals. The foam is made from several graphene sheets (grown on Nickel, which was later removed) and is flexible, rugged and retains graphene's important properties:…

A team of researchers from the University of Cambridge in the UK demonstrated ink-jet printing as a viable method for large area production of graphene devices. The team produced a graphene-based ink by liquid phase exfoliation of graphite in N-Methylpyrrolidone, and used it to print thin-film transistors. The team also printed transparent conductive patterns.



This research paves the way towards all-printed flexible and transparent graphene devices, on any substrate.…
