Researchers at ETH Zurich have succeeded in turning specially prepared graphene flakes either into insulators or into superconductors
May 6, 2021
Graphene just keeps getting weirder. Engineers at ETH Zurich have now managed to tweak the overachieving material so that some parts of a flake can be an electrical insulator while other areas act as a superconductor, just nanometers apart. The te...
