A RIKEN study shows that squeezing the right amount of potassium ions between the atomic layers of molybdenum disulfide can ...

Carbon nanotubes are aptly named. They’re composed of a single sheet of carbon atoms and are so small that thousands of them can fit inside a living cell. A unique thing about them are their ...

The team of researchers designed a novel carbon nanotube transistor using a concept known as source-gated transistors (SGTs). By adjusting the gate voltage, the CNT transistor can switch between ...

The team unveiled a carbon nanotube (CNT) transistor chip that processes data not just in ones and zeros, but also a third state, enabling computations to occur faster and with less energy.

A research team at the University of Limerick in Ireland has developed a new method of producing carbon fiber while drastically reducing its energy footprint. Researchers at UL are leading a project ...

Boron (B), carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and oxygen (O) are elements with atomic numbers 5, 6, 7, and 8, respectively, occupying consecutive positions in the periodic table. As a metalloid ...
