Scientists discovered that nanoscale wrinkles in 2D materials can preserve electron spin, enabling ultracompact and energy-efficient devices.

Graphene and 2D materials remain the subject of multibillion euro research across the world. Yet while mechanical exfoliation can yield high quality graphene that is useful for research purposes, ...

Physics researchers discover that assembling 2D materials into a 3D arrangement does not just result in 'thicker' 2D materials but instead produces entirely new materials. The nanomesh ...

A novel and better approach at detecting non-uniformities in the optical properties of two-dimensional materials could potentially open the door to new uses for these materials.

Due to material flexibility 2D materials are already finding application in advanced composite materials used to optimise the performance of sports equipment such as running shoes, skis or tennis ...
