A new graphene production process for the synthesis of “few-layer” graphene — for potential use in energy storage applications, amongst others — has been developed by researchers at the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) and the University of Western Australia (UWA), according to recent reports. The new approach to … [continued]
In what sounds like a solution in search of a problem, a few years ago researchers at Rice University figured out a way to create graphene ribbons by “unzipping” carbon nanotubes. Well, now it looks like a problem has been found, and it’s a big one with huge implications for … [continued]
Researchers from Rice University have created a ‘seamless’ graphene and nanotube hybrid. The material is probably the best electrode interface material possible for energy storage usages and other related electronics applications, according to the researchers. The new hybrid material appears as “forests of carbon nanotubes that rise quickly from … [continued]
