Peptides Bridge The Artificial And Biological

Genetically engineered peptides that can bridge the gap between synthetic materials and biomolecules could be used for ‘seamless’ bioelectronic devices.

The World’s Thinnest Photodetector

Korean researchers have developed a photodetector that is ten times smaller than the current standard silicon diodes.

Graphene Thermoacoustic Speakers Sound Like The Future

Unlike conventional speakers, thermoacoustic speakers do not rely on vibrations to produce sound, and thus do not need bulky acoustic boxes.

The ‘Beat’ Of A Graphene Drum Leads To Energy Transfer

The sound a nanometer-scale drum makes may not be music to the ears, but it could mean improvements in quantum information processing.

How To Build Thin, Bendy Computer Displays

These flexible organic light emitting diodes may be used in computer displays, or sensors that can be attached to the human body for health monitoring.

For Super-Sensitive Air Pollution Sensors, Just Add Graphene

Researchers have developed a graphene-based sensor that can detect even single molecules of indoor air pollutants such as carbon dioxide.

Carbon Nanotubes, Unzipped

Like folding paper to make a tear neater, doping carbon nanotubes makes it easier to unzip them without damaging their nanostructure.

Graphene Patch Monitors Sugar Levels In Sweat

This non-invasive device not only takes continuous glucose measurements but can also automatically deliver drugs if the glucose levels are too high.

Researchers Detect ‘Hot’ Electrons In Real Time

Using the wonder 2D material that is graphene, researchers have succeeded at measuring the amount of high energy electrons that indicate catalytic activity.
