Empa researchers from the nanotech@surfaces laboratory have experimentally recreated two fundamental quantum physics models originally inspired b ...

Scientists demonstrate for the second time that theoretical models of quantum physics can be realized with nanographenes, ...

Researchers have demonstrated that phosphorene nanoribbons (PNRs) exhibit both magnetic and semiconducting properties at room temperature. The research establishes PNRs as a unique class of ...

Researchers at the University of Turku, Finland, have succeeded in producing sensors from single-wall carbon nanotubes that ...

Recent findings reveal phosphorene nanoribbons exhibit intrinsic magnetic and semiconducting properties, paving the way for ...

Empa opened a new laboratory that aims to harness quantum effects from carbon. This could pave the way for sustainable quantum ...

Working with carbon-based materials offers a decisive advantage: “While individual atoms only have one spin, nanographenes make it possible to create several linked spins,” says Bae. Making several ...

Researchers at the University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory have been working on this problem for years; now, together with partners from Harvard University, they have perfected a new ...

lateral periodicity with respect to graphene and Co(0001) and a (7 × 7) lateral periodicity with respect to MoS 2 (the resulting structure in our paper is approximately four times larger as compared ...
