Carbon-based batteries, such as those using graphene, have better application potential compared to lithium-ion batteries, as ...

the effective surface area of graphene materials as capacitor electrodes does not depend on the distribution of pores in a solid state, which is different from the current supercapacitors fabricated ...

A new graphene-based interconnect technology developed by Destination 2 promises to help ICs overcome the limitations imposed ...

Porous carbon, such as activated carbon, microporous carbon, and mesoporous carbon, usually has very high surface area and tunable porous structure but very poor electrical conductivity. In contrast, ...

However, three years after it was first isolated by mechanical exfoliation of graphite 1, there is no doubt that graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms densely packed into a benzene-ring ...

This new material, which combines graphene with limestone and calcined clay cement (LC2), offers enhanced strength and ...

the researchers demonstrated that the nanoporous material could adsorb carbon dioxide at nearly twice the capacity of traditional activated carbons, and can capture 99% of its total capacity in ...

Balsa trees grow fast, averaging 10+ feet per year, so this is a more sustainable alternative to graphene and carbon nanotubes ... abilities to make a rain-activated, shape-shifting prototype ...

Unlike graphite, graphene only contains a single layer of carbon atoms. Scientists are still working out how we could use it, but in the future it could be used to make better gloves, sportswear ...
