To reproduce what Thomas Edison did, with the tools and knowledge we have now, is very exciting,” said co-author James Tour, ...

Graphene has drawn attention as a scientific curiosity owing to its record conductivities, strength and thermal properties.

Graphene is an extremely thin, flexible and resistant material made of pure carbon. It forms layers that consist of virtually a single layer of carbon atoms. To make graphene as thick as a human hair, ...

Graphene is one of the most remarkable materials ever discovered – a nearly two-dimensional sheet of carbon just one atom ...

Graphene has long been hailed as a "wonder material." It is incredibly strong, highly conductive and almost impossibly ...

For industrial-scale applications, a delicate balance must exist between graphene quality and production cost. As diverse applications demand varied graphene properties, customizing graphene films to ...

Researchers recreated an 1879-style carbon-filament light bulb and found it could reach temperatures needed to form ...

Graphene has many fantastic properties that could change the course of human civilization. It's chemically stable, highly conductive, and incredibly strong. One thing it is not, however, is magnetic.

A milestone in graphene research: Chemists have succeeded in controlling the passage of halide ions by deliberately introducing defects into a two-layer nanographene system. Their paper shows new ...

One-step, etch- free patterning enables clean, low-resistance graphene electrodes for transparent and flexible devices.
