Suspended Graphene Shows Ballistic Promise

Sunday, July 27th, 2008

In a recent article posted as an Advance Online Publication of Nature Nanotechnology, researchers from Rutgers provide even more support of graphene's promise in future nano devices.  The researchers compared electronic properties of suspended graphene (SG) --that is, graphene held between two electrodes and not physically in contact with a ...

The Graphene Sheet Patent Landscape

Monday, April 7th, 2008

In order to complement the previous posting I thought it would be interesting to take a look at some of the patent trends regarding graphene sheet materials. As noted in this recent article of the Nanotechnology Law & Business Journal the terminology associated with carbon nanotubes and related nanostructures can ...

Graphene vs Carbon Nanotubes

Friday, April 4th, 2008

Trouble is brewing and the carbon wars have begun. It's "sheets" versus "tubes", 2-D vs 3-D, graphene versus nanotubes. Man your battlestations, toss in your bets, and start your research! Because of some recent news regarding graphene, in this post I will attempt to highlight some of the patentability ...
