Graphene has long been the material that energy researchers talk about in future tense, but a new wave of lab results is ...

Graphene is an incredibly light, strong and durable material made of a single layer of carbon atoms. Unfortunately, it’s also expensive and energy intensive. I never know what to expect when I tell ...

Modern building and urban infrastructure construction are among the largest consumers of raw materials globally, with cement and concrete manufacturing alone responsible for approximately 8% of the ...

Graphene perovskite reaches 30.6% efficiency, slashes costs by up to 80%, excels in low light, and adds durability with recyclable materials.

As the mostly widely used material on Earth, concrete has a massive carbon footprint that scientists are working to chip away at in all sorts of ways. Recent research projects have demonstrated how ...

Writer and occasional reluctant perpetrator of engine swaps, James O'Neil is a malaise era enthusiast and also fascinated by the many ways the auto industry has since recovered from those dark days.

Graphene, which is comprised of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, is a widely used material known for its advantageous electrical and mechanical properties. When graphene ...

Energy storage systems such as batteries play a critical role in electric vehicles (EVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). The major battery types ...

Graphene, first isolated and characterized in 2004 by researchers at the University of Manchester (Manchester, U.K.) who used adhesive tape to separate graphite into individual layers of carbon, won ...

Juelich, 29 March 2016 - Juelich physicists have discovered unexpected effects in doped graphene - i.e. graphene that is mixed with foreign atoms. They investigated samples of the carbon compound ...

In 2004, Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov at the University of Manchester in England achieved a breakthrough when they isolated graphene for the first time. A flat form of carbon made up of a ...
