National University of Singapore (NUS) physicists have developed a concept to induce and directly quantify spin splitting in two-dimensional materials. By using this concept, they have experimentally ...

Graphene-based nanoparticle composites attract considerable attention due to their unique properties and the large variety of possible applications, such as sensing, energy storage, and catalysis. The ...

Researchers have found a new way to synthesize graphene oxide which has significantly fewer defects compared to materials produced by most common method. Similarly good graphene oxide could be ...

Magnets and superconductors don't normally get along, but a new study shows that 'magic-angle' graphene is capable of producing both superconductivity and ferromagnetism, which could be useful in ...

Scientists from TU Delft (The Netherlands) have observed quantum spin currents in graphene for the first time without using magnetic fields. These currents are vital for spintronics, a faster and more ...

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 ...

New findings reveal that organosulfate groups, not carboxyls, control graphene oxide's surface charge in water, challenging long-standing models and reshaping its chemical profile. (Nanowerk Spotlight ...
