Researchers develop high-speed electronics using graphene

Is there anything graphene cannot improve? Swedish researchers recently used the wonder material to enable electronics that work at terahertz speeds. In an article in Chalmers Microtechnology and Nanoscience Department News, they combined graphene transistors and plastic substrates to create a malleable electronic detector that detects terahertz radiation. The graphene-based detector is the first of […]

New graphene gas sensor inspired by dog noses

Man’s best friend enjoys one of the best noses on the planet. That’s why a Chinese-led study based its newly-developed electronic nose on a dog’s nose by using biomimetic graphene materials, reported a Nanowerk article. A dog’s excellent sense of smell comes from the hundreds of millions of capillaries that line the inside of its nose. The large […]

Technology for plants: Engineers have developed sensors for leaves, enabling farmers to capture more detailed data about their crops

The future of science and technology is looking up — and it’s not just for man and machine. Plants are also getting in on the action, thanks to innovations like the “low-cost, easily produced, graphene-based, sensors-on-tape.” Despite the long description, this wearable sensor tape can be easily stuck to a plant, which, in turn, will allow data […]
