The interest in mechanical properties of two-dimensional materials has emerged in light of new device concepts taking advantage of flexing, adhesion and friction. Here we demonstrate an effective ...

Nextbigfuture has covered the LK99, PCPOSOS (aka LK99 with Sulfur) and the wrinkled graphite room temperature and room pressure superconductors or possible room temperature and room pressure ...

Graphite films just a few atoms thick--and in some cases, as thin as a single atom--have been prepared as single, stable layers for the first time and incorporated into experimental devices [Science, ...

The identification of pyrolytic carbon as a suitable material for heart valves happened almost accidentally. In 1966, Dr. Bokros was working on pyrolytic carbon coatings for nuclear fuel particles. He ...

There are indications of room temperature and room pressure superconductivity for LK99, PCPOSOS and now parallel lines of wrinkled graphite. There is significant amounts of experimental, computational ...

This study redefines the limits of synthetic graphite, achieving grain sizes on the millimeter scale—vastly larger than those of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) and comparable to rare ...
