Graphite is a naturally occurring form of carbon composed of carbon atom layers stacked on top of each other. These layers are loosely bonded, allowing them to slide past one another and giving ...

Exposing graphite to an intense ultrashort mid-infrared laser pulse induces a highly conductive light-matter hybrid phase as optically excited electrons strongly couple to coherent optical phonons.

Researchers from Rice University's Department of Materials Science and NanoEngineering, in partnership with Baylor University and the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research ...

The outlook for the graphite market is promising due to its usage in the battery industry and energy storage applications, as well as steel-making. With China dominating the natural graphite market, ...
