X-ray analysis of carbon nanostructures helps material design

Nanowerk   -   Nanotechnology Websites

Nanostructures made of carbon are extremely versatile: they can absorb ions in batteries and supercapacitors, store gases, and desalinate water. How well they cope with the task at hand depends largely on the structural features of the nanopores. ...

Defects help nanomaterial soak up more pollutant in less time

Phys.org   -   Scientific News Websites

Cleaning pollutants from water with a defective filter sounds like a non-starter, but a recent study by chemical engineers at Rice University found that the right-sized defects helped a molecular sieve soak up more perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PF...

Quantum-critical conductivity of the Dirac fluid in graphene

Phys.org   -   Scientific News Websites

Graphene is expected to behave like a quantum-critical, relativistic plasma known as "Dirac fluid" near charge neutrality in which massless electrons and holes rapidly collide. In a recent study now published in Science, Patrick Gallaghe...
