- Wafer-scale porous graphene network shows room-temperature ferromagnetismResearchers at Shenzhen University, the Japan Atomic Energy Agency, the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST), the University of Tokyo, the University of Science and Technology of China, Xi'an Jiaotong University, Shenzhen Technology University (SZTU), and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, have grown a wafer-scale hyper-porous graphene network (HGN) that shows intrinsic ferromagnetism […]
- Switchable graphene nanoribbon flips its twist direction using a chiral solventResearchers at Nagoya University have synthesized a helical graphene nanoribbon (GNR) whose handedness can be switched on demand. The team built what they call a poly[4]helicene nanoribbon, a ladder-type polymer made entirely of [4]helicene subunits, and showed that dissolving it in a chiral solvent locks the ribbon into a single, uniform spiral direction, right- or […]
- Sparc Technologies completes first commercial delivery of ecosparc® graphene additive to Tier 1 coatings customerSparc Technologies has completed the first commercial delivery of its ecosparc® graphene additive to a Tier 1 coatings customer, fulfilling a 160kg order from the company's production facility in Adelaide, South Australia, for use in a high-performance protective coating.The delivery follows the launch of two ecosparc®-enhanced coatings products since May 2026, including AkzoNobel's commercial release […]
- Faint far-infrared light drives insulator-to-metal transition in magic-angle grapheneResearchers at the National University of Singapore, the Center for Neurophysics and Neuromorphic Technologies (Moscow), Queen's University (Kingston), HSE University (Moscow), the National Institute for Materials Science (Tsukuba) and the University of Manchester, have shown that magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG) can be switched from an insulating to a metallic state by exposure to very […]
- Gate-tunable spin bands in graphene point toward low-voltage spin transistorsResearchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS), led by Assistant Professor Ahmet Avsar of the university's Centre for Advanced 2D Materials, have combined a record-fidelity graphene spin-transport platform with magnetic-proximity band engineering to move graphene closer to practical spin-logic and spin-memory devices, across two complementary studies. The work targets one of graphene spintronics' core […]
- Graphene improves ZnO:Sm nanocomposite dielectric conductivity by up to seven orders of magnitudeResearchers at Romania's National Institute for Research and Development in Microtechnologies (IMT-Bucharest), working with the "Petru Poni" Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry in Iasi, the Horia Hulubei National R&D Institute for Physics and Nuclear Engineering's Extreme Light Infrastructure-Nuclear Physics facility, the National University of Science and Technology POLITEHNICA Bucharest, and Hellenic Mediterranean University in Greece, have […]
- New graphene oxide-based catalyst boosts zinc-air battery performanceResearchers at CICATA-Legaria, the National Laboratory for Energy Conversion and Storage at Mexico's Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN) in Mexico City, have developed a composite of pyridine-coordinated transition-metal nitroprussides and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as a bifunctional pre-electrocatalyst for zinc-air batteries (ZABs). Testing cobalt, nickel, and copper versions of the material, the team found that each […]
- Biodegradable graphene-oxide platform senses neurotransmitters, modulates brain astrocyte signalingResearchers at Italy's National Research Council (CNR) - specifically its Institute for Organic Synthesis and Photoreactivity (Cnr-Isof) and Institute of Nanostructured Materials (Cnr-Ismn) - working with Ca' Foscari University of Venice, the University of Ferrara, and the University of Bologna, have developed a graphene-based bioelectronic platform that combines sustainable materials, biochemical sensing, and neural stimulation […]
- Premier Graphene, HGI deliver second batch of tactical belts under Mexico's SEDENA contractPremier Graphene (OTC: BIEI) and joint venture partner HGI Industrial Technologies have delivered a second batch of tactical belts to the Dirección General de Fábrica de Vestuario y Equipo (FAVE), a division of Mexico's Secretaría de la Defensa Nacional (SEDENA), keeping production on schedule under the companies' defense supply contract.The delivery is part of a […]
- Newspaper cellulose enables tap-water processing of e-waste graphite into grapheneResearchers at Dublin City University (DCU), led by materials scientist Conor Boland, have shown that graphene can be produced from electronic-waste graphite using little more than a kitchen blender, waste newspaper and ordinary tap water, extending the group's earlier household-graphene work to waste-derived starting materials as well as waste-derived processing. The starting point is the […]
