[Graphene] – Misalignments in encapsulated graphene lead to strong modification of electronic properties
23 février 2020
Researchers at the University of Antwerp report how higher-order periodic modulations called supermoiré caused by the encapsulation of graphene between hexagonal boron nitride affect the electronic and structural properties of graphene, as revealed in three recent independent experiments.

[Nanoparticles] – Copper oxide sub-nanoparticle catalysts prove most superior
23 février 2020
Scientists at Tokyo Institute of Technology have shown that copper oxide particles on the sub-nanoscale are more powerful catalysts than those on the nanoscale. These subnanoparticles can also catalyze the oxidation reactions of aromatic hydrocarbons far more effectively than catalysts currently used in industry.
