Graphite, the soft material found inside ordinary pencils, may seem simple, but scientists have discovered that it can behave in remarkable ways when examined at the atomic level. Researchers from the ...

Researchers in the Texas A&M University J. Mike Walker '66 Department of Mechanical Engineering have developed a new method ...

The ordinary graphite in pencil lead is proving to be surprisingly multifaceted at the microscale. In a study published in ...

For years, graphene was called the material of the future. That future is finally arriving. Join us as we uncover the most exciting graphene innovations happening right now, from ultra-sensitive ...

This looks like a graphene story at first glance, but it isn't. Graphene has two major problems: it's tough to make, and we don't really know what its keystone use is. High-quality graphene is made by ...
