Figure 1: Fabrication of molecular valves in suspended graphene. Gas transport through the ångström-sized pore can be modelled using classical effusion. When the pore size is smaller than the mean ...

Imagine a world where you can tailor the properties of graphene to have the outcome you desire. By combining its unique properties with the precision of molecular chemistry, scientists have taken the ...

An international team of researchers has revealed a new way to tune the functionality of next-generation molecular electronic devices using graphene. The results could be exploited to develop smaller, ...

Graphene is pure carbon and the fourth most abundant element after hydrogen, helium and oxygen in the known universe. It's the thinnest compound we know of (less than one atom thick), up to 300 times ...

Scientists at Nagoya University have developed a simple way to align molecules in one direction on a flat graphene surface. Efficiently controlling molecular alignment is expected to lead to ...

Researchers arranged carbon monoxide molecules to form the same hexagonal pattern found in graphene, except that they could adjust molecular spacing slightly. They placed individual molecules of ...

The conductivity of Graphene has made it a target for many researchers seeking to exploit it to create molecular scale devices and now a research team jointly led by University of Warwick and EMPA ...
