Graphene has many fantastic properties that could change the course of human civilization. It's chemically stable, highly conductive, and incredibly strong. One thing it is not, however, is magnetic.

Scientists from TU Delft (The Netherlands) have observed quantum spin currents in graphene for the first time without using magnetic fields. These currents are vital for spintronics, a faster and more ...

Almost 20 years after graphene’s discovery, research suggests it is the most magnetoresistant material we know of. This describes its ability to increase or decrease its electrical resistance in ...

Graphene is not magnetic -- a shortcoming that has stunted its usefulness in spintronics, an emerging field that could rewrite the rules of electronics, leading to more powerful semiconductors and ...

Following the discovery of graphene, its two-dimensional (2D) structure and its electronic and mechanical properties have gained much attention from the research community. Graphene is extensively ...

Strange things happen when you stack and twist graphene. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. Graphene, one of the world's strongest ...

Is there anything that "miracle material " graphene cannot do? Its newly found property, magnetism that can be switched on and off, could pave the way to new transistor-like devices that are much ...

Researchers used an ultrathin graphene 'sandwich' to create a tiny magnetic field sensor that can operate over a greater temperature range than previous sensors, while also detecting miniscule changes ...

The NUS researchers demonstrated the emergence of robust spin-polarisation in graphene on a ferrimagnetic insulating oxide Tm3Fe5O12 (TmIG) with large spin-splitting energy of up to hundreds of meV.

(Nanowerk News) When two sheets of the carbon nanomaterial graphene are stacked together at a particular angle with respect to each other, it gives rise to some fascinating physics. For instance, when ...
