Graphene is already known for being incredibly strong, despite being just one atom thick. So how can it be made even stronger? By turning it into sheets of diamond, of course. Researchers in South ...

The degradation of intrinsic properties of graphene during the transfer process constitutes a major challenge in graphene device fabrication, stimulating the need for direct growth of graphene on ...

In recent years, materials scientists experimenting with ceramics have started adding an oxidized form of graphene to the mix to produce ceramics that are tougher, more durable, and more resistant to ...

Recently, researchers from the CAS Key Laboratory of Microscale Magnetic Resonance at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), in collaboration with Nanjing University and other ...

Graphene, an allotrope of carbon, has a layered structure of carbon rings formed in a hexagonal lattice structure. This arrangement of carbon in two-dimension gives properties such as high thermal ...

Providing multiple functional roles simultaneously, the composition of seashells and bones gradually vary throughout their structure making them part of a group of materials called Functionally Graded ...
