New Form of Graphene Should Finally Make Graphene Electronics Possible

New Form of Graphene Should Finally Make Graphene Electronics Possible | 21st Century Innovative Technologies and Developments as also discoveries, curiosity ( insolite)... | Scoop.it

For years, scientists have struggled to build graphene-based electronics that could do the same thing as silicon superconductor chips. A new breakthrough from an international team of scientists might just change all that. These geniuses just invented a new form of graphene that's ten times more conductive.

The trick to this new form of graphene is that it allows electrons to act like photons. The impressive material is simply nanoribbons of epitaxial graphene—that's the honeycomb arrangement of carbon atoms you're used to seeing to illustrate graphene—that's manufactured using a relatively simple process.


The scientists grew the nanoribbons on silicone carbide wafers in which they had etched circuit patterns using standard microelectronics techniques. The silicone was then heated to about 1,000º Celsius, melting the silicone off and leaving these novel graphene nanoribbons with perfectly smooth edges. The graphene forms spontaneously on the etched edges of the silicon.

High-tech glasses developed at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis may help surgeons visualize cancer cells, whichglow blue when viewed through the eyewear.


The wearable technology, so new it’s yet unnamed, was used during surgery for the first time today at Alvin J. Siteman Cancer Centerat Barnes-Jewish Hospital and Washington University School of Medicine.
Cancer cells are notoriously difficult to see, even under high-powered magnification. The glasses are designed to make it easier for surgeons to distinguish cancer cells from healthy cells, helping to ensure that no stray tumor cells are left behind during surgery.

Nanodiamonds to help target cancer cells

Nanodiamonds to help target cancer cells

 

Nanodiamond particles, or nanodiamonds (NDs), have emerged as a promising candidate for use in biomedical imaging and for different biomedical applications such as drug carrier platform. They show decreased cytotoxicity in comparison to other NPs, and can follow their fate by fluorescence imaging as a result of point defects in the diamond structure.
