Putting graphene in its place - a challenge
20 July, 2012 | Supplied by: Penn StatePutting graphene into a microchip that could outperform current silicon technology has proved difficult in the past. The answer to this problem may lie in nanoscale systems based on ultrathin layers of materials with exotic properties, called two-dimensional layered materials. Researchers at Penn State in the US applied one such material to produce improved transistor performance at an industrially relevant scale.
