Scientist have developed a novel “direct-write” additive lithographic technique that can be used to electronically pattern graphene
Scientists discovered that a close relative of a well-known iron-based mineral called fool’s gold (iron pyrite, FeS2) is an
Understanding the synthesis, growth, and physical properties of nanoparticles is important for the development of next-generation materials. This
Biology uses stress, defects, molecular configuration (for example, handedness), and hierarchical design strategies to assemble and/or create a
Conventional transmission electron microscopy and metallography techniques survey a limited amount of material in samples. Consequently, these
Graphene nanoribbons are predicted to transport electricity and dissipate heat more efficiently than traditional electronic materials such as
Semiconductor nanowire lasers, due to their ultra-compact physical sizes, highly localized coherent output, and efficiency, are promising
3D printing has revolutionized the way we can make and design materials. Now a team led by scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory has added
