Engineering a bandgap without degrading electron mobility is the key to making graphene into a practical electronic material. The two main strategies for opening up a bandgap in graphene rely on size- ...

Now researchers in the same group and their collaborators have demonstrated that in a different ultra-thin material that also features a honeycomb-shaped atomic structure — chromium trichloride (CrCl3 ...

(Nanowerk News) Using advanced spectroscopic techniques, researchers from RWTH Aachen University have been able to observe for the first-time domains of tetralayer graphene with ABCB stacking. The ...

Cu-Si alloy at high temperature offers clues for the synthesis of wafer-scale, single crystalline graphene stacking and for our lives after the end of the Moore's Law Graphene, an atomically thin ...

Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) semiconductors are special materials that have long fascinated researchers with their unique properties. For one, they are flat, one-atom-thick two-dimensional ...
