Two research teams synthesize highly ordered carbonaceous structures, such as graphene, using unusual but everyday raw materials, and even waste.
Results for "sensors"
Any Shape, Any Substrate Ferroelectric Materials
A new method of making ferroelectrics that uses a heated probe tip means they can be produced directly on virtually any substrate and in any shape.
A Physical Route to Highly Crystalline Graphene
A new method to produce purer, more conductive graphene sheets has been developed by a Korean research team
Forces Combine to Make DNA Arrays
Ring-shaped arrays of DNA by using a simple self-assembly process driven by a balance of different forces, by scientists in the USA and S. Korea.
Russian Diamonds: Nanodiamonds with Valuable Flaws
Russian scientists have made nanodiamonds with a higher concentration of nitrogen vacancy centers, with a better efficiency than was previously possible.
Book Review: Charge and Exciton Transport through Molecular Wires
New publication brings together theory and experimental results in molecular electronics – can we go beyond Moore’s law? Emanuele Orgiu & Paolo Samorì of ISIS tell us more
On the Surface: Patterning Conjugated Polymers
Surface patterning using conjugated polymers is set to take off, according to a review by Chinese scientists.
What can Nanochemistry do for Chemical and Biological Sensing?
So what is next for nanochemical and biochemical sensor research? Shouldn’t we be trying to find the next glass pH electrode, rather than trying to squeeze that extra fraction of a percent out of our tried and tested materials?
Graphene’s brothers and sisters
A set of twelve graphene-like materials is simulated regarding their stability, structural, and electronic properties.
Nanochemistry – When It Rains It Pores
Professor Geoffrey Ozin from the University of Toronto reviews porous materials—how the research goals have varied over the years, where we are today, and what these materials may offer in the future.
