The crystalline carbon family is the subject of a determined research effort because the unique bonding features of carbon give it some very special properties. For instance, diamond is an extremely ...
Computer models of nanotubes illustrate a property called "chirality." When carbon atoms are arranged in straight lines along the tube, the tube is a very good conductor. When they form a spiral ...
The first scanning tunneling spectroscopy of graphene flakes equipped with a "gate" electrode has found an unexpected gap-like feature in the energy spectrum of electrons tunneling into graphene's ...
Electrons moving in graphene behave in an unusual way, as demonstrated by 2010 Nobel Prize laureates for physics Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov, who performed transport experiments on this ...
To unlock materials of the future, including better photocatalysts or light-switchable superconductors, researchers need to ...
The distribution of outermost shell electrons, known as valence electrons, of organic molecules was experimentally observed for the first time by a team led by Nagoya University in Japan. As the ...
(Nanowerk Spotlight) Semiconducting carbon nanotubes have outstanding electrical and optical properties. This has allowed for engineering device prototypes showing great potential for applications ...
