New insights into memristive devices by combining incipient ferroelectrics and graphene

Materials scientists analyzed the behaviour of strontium titanium oxide, a platform material for memristor research and used the 2D material graphene to probe it.

One-way street for electrons

Scientists observe directed energy transport between neighbouring molecules in a nanomaterial.

Light-controlled nanomachine controls catalysis

Researchers have now managed to control a catalysis reaction using a light-controlled motor. This takes us one step closer to realising the vision of a nano factory in which combinations of various machines work together, as is the case in biological cells.

Specific isotope-responsive breathing transition in flexible MOFs

Researchers have introduced a novel responsive system, capable of molecular recognition of physicochemically similar mixtures, such as isotopes.

Synthesizing a vertical 2D layered fused aromatic ladder structure

Scientists have designed and synthesized a vertical two-dimensional (2D) layered structure to develop materials that exhibit excellent performance in terms of gas storage and for the removal of toxic substances.

More Moore: Development of ultra-thin semiconductor electrodes

Researchers have succeeded in patterning a two-dimensional (2D) metal electrode into desired shapes on the 4-inch diameter silicon substrate.

Staying ahead of the curve with 3D curved graphene

By controlling the curvature, researchers have successfully retained the electrical properties of 2D graphene in a 3D structure.
