A huge step toward mass production of graphene (PhysOrg)
Scientists have leaped over a major hurdle in efforts to begin commercial production of a form of carbon that could rival silicon in its potential for revolutionizing electronics devices ranging from supercomputers to cell phones. Called graphene, the material consists of a layer of graphite 50,000 times thinner than a human hair with unique... »
High, not flat: nanowires for a new chip architecture (Science Daily)
Silicon is the most prevalent material in electronics, whether for mobile phones, solar cells or computers. Nanometer-sized wires made of silicon have a large potential for a completely new chip architecture. But this requires a detailed investigation and understanding of their electronic properties which is technologically challenging due to the ultra-small size of the... »
Scientists Develop DNA Origami Nanoscale Breadboards For Carbon Nanotube Circuits (ElectronicsWeb)
