Feb 8, 2021 · Graphene has been found to have the electronic property of ferroelectricity. The work by MIT researchers and colleagues could usher in faster information-processing paradigms.

Mar 5, 2018 · Physicists at MIT and Harvard University have found that graphene, a lacy, honeycomb-like sheet of carbon atoms, can behave at two electrical extremes: as an insulator, in which electrons …

Feb 5, 2025 · Physicists measured how readily a current of electron pairs flows through “magic-angle” graphene, a major step toward understanding how this unusual material superconducts.

Jan 23, 2025 · MIT physicists have created an ultrathin, two-dimensional material with unusual magnetic properties. They did so by working with three layers of graphene. Each layer is composed of only a …

Apr 17, 2018 · MIT engineers have developed a scalable manufacturing process that spools out strips of graphene for use in ultrathin membranes.

Nov 18, 2024 · MIT physicists have taken a key step toward solving the puzzle of what leads electrons to split into fractions of themselves. Their solution sheds light on the conditions that give rise to exotic …

Oct 18, 2023 · When stacked in five layers in a rhombohedral pattern, graphene takes on a rare “multiferroic” state, exhibiting both unconventional magnetism and an exotic electronic behavior …

Feb 26, 2025 · MIT physicists report the discovery of electrons forming crystalline structures in a material billionths of a meter thick. The material, rhombohedral pentalayer graphene, joins a family of …

May 23, 2014 · Illustrated here is a new process for making graphene directly on a nonmetal substrate. First, a nickel layer is applied to the material, in this case silicon dioxide (SiO2). Then carbon is …

Jul 8, 2022 · MIT physicsts identified new multilayered configurations of graphene that can be twisted and stacked to elicit robust superconductivity at low temperatures. The study establishes these …
