The electronic and magnetic properties of two-dimensional materials both have strong potential for technological applications. Researchers have long assumed that they are distinct phenomena, but ...

The effect of using graphene, as well as carbon nanotubes, has been tested out in studies to show the tensile strength of the produced silk. The silkworm is the larva or caterpillar of the ...

Harder than a diamond, stronger than steel, as flexible as rubber and lighter than aluminum. These are just some of the properties attributed to graphene. Although this material has sparked great ...

Researchers at UNSW have discovered a new way to make graphene, a remarkable "wonder material," using just discarded peanut ...

What if the material that could transform nearly every industry was just one atom thick? Below, Matt Ferrell takes you through how graphene, a substance 200 times stronger than steel yet lighter than ...
