I never know what to expect when I tell people I study graphene—some have never heard of it, while others have seen some version of these headlines and inevitably ask, “So what’s the holdup?” Graphene ...

Graphene is a hot subject in science right now. It’s a honeycomb sheet of carbon just one atom thick, 200 times stronger than steel, more conductive than copper and can stretch up to 125% of its ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. – Moiré patterns occur everywhere. They are created by layering two similar but not identical geometric designs. A common example is the pattern that sometimes emerges when viewing a ...

Researchers have developed a pioneering technique for producing large-scale graphene current collectors. This breakthrough promises to significantly enhance the safety and performance of lithium-ion ...

Kevin Wyss receives funding through the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship, as well as the Rice University Stauffer-Rothrock Fellowship. He has worked in collaboration with Ford Motor Company and ...

For the first time, scientists have observed electrons in graphene behaving like a nearly perfect quantum fluid, challenging a long-standing puzzle in physics. By creating ultra-clean samples, the ...

Almost 20 years after graphene’s discovery, research suggests it is the most magnetoresistant material we know of. This describes its ability to increase or decrease its electrical resistance in ...
