The simplest way to describe graphene is that it is a single, thin layer of graphite — the soft, flaky material used in pencil lead. Graphite is an allotrope of the element carbon, meaning it possesses the same
Dr. Kiana Aran of Cardea Bio published a study which combined three different Nobel Prize-winning technologies - graphene, transistors, and CRISPR - intoa tiny chip that can detect pathogenic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Since 50% of disease-causing mutations in humans are SNPs, this ...
What is the chemical formula for graphene?Hybridisation of Carbon in Grapene:Each carbon atom in a graphene sheet is connected to three other carbon atoms in a trigonal planar geometry. Thus the hybridization of carbon atoms is sp2.Answer and Explanation: ...
What is the melting point of mendelevium in Fahrenheit? What is the melting point of rhodium? What is the melting point of meso-stilbene dibromide? What is the melting point of fermium in Fahrenheit? What is the melting point of graphene?
The quantum yield of a chemical compound is the amount of photons emitted divided by the number of photons absorbed. The extinction coefficient measures how strongly a chemical compound absorbs light. Fluorescence spectroscopy is commonly used in bioscience and chemistry to analyse samples and measure ...
In April 1982, Prof. Dan Shechtman of the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology made a groundbreaking discovery that would later earn him the 2011 Nobel Prize in Chemistry: the quasiperiodic crystal. When he examined the material using electron diffraction, it appeared “disorganized” on a ...
LTO Crystal Structure and ChemistryWhilst LTO comes in different crystal phases, the spinel structure is the most commonly used as an anode material. It has the space group Fd3̅m. In this crystal the titanium exists as octahedra coordinated to oxygen atoms with lithium ion in the tetrahedral...

A long term objective of nanotechnology is to build nano-sized machines which can be inserted into the human body in order to detect and repair diseased cells is a real possibility. Current research however, is only at the primitive levels designing simple components e.g., a carbon nanotube ...
Graphene and other two-dimensional materials are being developed as active components on photonic integrated circuits. In this image, photonic modulators(bottom row)encode data in digital pulses carved from a continuous-wave input laser. These pulses are detected by chip-integrated photodetectors(top ro...
