The areas of flexible electrodes and strain sensors have seen a lot of growth in recent years, especially as materials with a flexible nature have become more commercialised. One such material used in ...

Inspired by origami, researchers at Donghua University in Shanghai, China, have built self-folding paper from extremely thin sheets of graphene oxide. The new paper bends in response to light or heat, ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) In order to exploit the remarkable mechanical properties of graphene for practical applications, nanoscale graphene sheets need to be assembled into much larger, macroscopic ...

In a recent study published in the journal Bioresources and Bioproducts, an international team of researchers synthesized a reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and fluorescent carbon dot (CD) nanocomposite ...
