Physicists discover important new property for graphene A new property Graphene is composed of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in hexagons resembling a honeycomb structure Since the material’s discovery, scientists have shown that different configurations of graphene layers can give rise to a variety of important properties
MIT physicists find unexpected crystals of electrons in an ultrathin . . . MIT physicists report the discovery of electrons forming crystalline structures in a material billionths of a meter thick The material, rhombohedral pentalayer graphene, joins a family of materials with exotic properties that may have other “relatives ”
How can electrons split into fractions of themselves? - MIT News MIT physicists have taken a key step toward solving the puzzle of what leads electrons to split into fractions of themselves Their solution sheds light on the conditions that give rise to exotic electronic states in graphene and other two-dimensional systems
Insulator or superconductor? Physicists find graphene is both Physicists at MIT and Harvard University have found that graphene, a lacy, honeycomb-like sheet of carbon atoms, can behave at two electrical extremes: as an insulator, in which electrons are completely blocked from flowing; and as a superconductor, in which electrical current can stream through without resistance
Researchers design one of the strongest, lightest materials known A team of researchers at MIT has developed one of the strongest lightweight materials known, by compressing to fuse flakes of the two-dimensional form of carbon known as graphene The new material, a sponge-like configuration with a density of just 5 percent, can have a strength as much of 10 times that of steel
