Hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) is a layered material with a structure analogous to that of graphene. Within each layer, it is composed of alternating boron and nitrogen atoms that are arranged in a sp ...

Scientists are investigating how structures made from several layers of graphene stack up in terms of their fundamental physics and their potential as reconfigurable semiconductors for advanced ...

Electron-beam cuts make twisted graphene rebuild itself into carbon nanotubes, arrays, and Y-junctions through controlled ...

Engineers synthesized aligned forests of nanoscale fibers made of boron nitride, or 'white graphene.' They hope to harness the technique to fabricate bulk-scale arrays of these nanotubes, which can ...

Researchers at AIST have created a method to introduce alkali metals into the graphene interlayers, working with researchers from Osaka University, Tokyo Polytechnic University, Kyushu University, and ...

When it comes to electrically conductive nanomaterials, graphene—stronger and lighter than steel and more conductive than copper—has been shown to be an excellent choice for a wide range of ...

Qumus is a physically embodied, multi-agent AI system that autonomously plans, executes, analyzes, and refines quantum-materials experiments inside a robotic minilab.
