Global Graphene Call, business ideas relating to graphene

A collaboration in Spain is launching the Global Graphene Call designed to develop business ideas linked to graphene.
 
 

Novel graphene-based filters to make gas purification more effective

Researchers have shown how a new class of low-cost graphene-based membranes can be selectively tuned to separate different gases from gaseous mixtures.
 
 

3D-printed nanowire sensors could make breath tests for diabetes possible

Researchers have developed a procedure to produce extremely sensitive and energy-efficient sensors using 3D printing.
 
 

Creating safer ceramic coatings with gold and silver nanoparticles

Scientists report progress toward a new type of glaze that includes gold and silver nanoparticles, which are less toxic and more environmentally friendly than currently used formulations, while still providing vibrant colors.
 
 

Double-walled carbon nanotubes have electro-optical advantages

One nanotube could be great for electronics applications, but there's new evidence that two could be tops.
 
 

Nanocrystals will help detect methanol and other alcohols

Researchers developed highly sensitive sensors based on cobalt oxide nanoflakes which are capable of detecting various alcohols in the air. The new sensors can be used for both medical diagnostics and detection of toxic methanol in the air.
 
 

Novel light funnel device could serve as platform for hypersensitive optical detectors

The light accumulation achieved by the light funnel could be the basis for improving the sensitivity of optical detectors and thus enabling unprecedented optical applications.
 
 

A new battery chemistry promises safer high-voltage lithium-ion batteries

Researchers develop a cyclic phosphate-based battery electrolyte for high voltage and safe operation.
 
 

Understanding differences in streptavidin-biotin binding

A recent paper uses computational tools to explain the mechanism of how streptavidin and biotin binding is affected by streptavidin's tethering.
 
 

Skyrmions seen in a kagome lattice

Magnetic vortices have been made and seen in a crystal with a special structure.
 
 

Just add salt to enhance the spatial resolution of single-molecule Raman spectroscopy

A thin substrate of sodium chloride aids the spectroscopic resolution of single-molecule vibrations.
