A team at the Center for Relativistic Laser Science, within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS), has found a completely new way to generate extreme-ultraviolet emissions, that is light having a wavelength of 10 to 120 nanometers. Published in Nature Photonics, this method is expected to find applications in imaging with nanometer resolution, next-generation lithography…
Bubbly Graphene Measures the Cool Factor
A team of researchers at the Center for Multidimensional Carbon Materials, within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) have measured and controlled the temperature of individual graphene bubbles with a single laser beam for the first time. The study is now available from Physical Review Letters. The highly elastic and flexible nature of graphene allows…
Graphene Decorated with Useful Chemical Groups
Researchers at the Center for Multidimensional Carbon Materials, within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology have disclosed a new method to add chemical groups on (that is, to “functionalize”) single layer (SLG) and bilayer (BLG) graphene lying on silica/silicon. This study, recently published online in the Journal…
Graphene Spiked with Hydrogen Holds Promise for Semiconductors
Adding hydrogen to graphene could improve its future applicability in the semiconductor industry, when silicon leaves off. Researchers at the Center for Multidimensional Carbon Materials (CMCM) within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) have recently gained further insight into this chemical reaction. Published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, these findings extend the…
