Sliding on flexible graphene surfaces has been uncharted territory until now.

Method to stack hundreds of nanoscale layers could open new vistas in materials science.

Some “forbidden” light emissions are in fact possible, could enable new sensors and light-emitting devices.

By slowing down light to a speed slower than flowing electrons, researchers create a kind of optical “sonic boom.”

Researchers create perfect nanoscrolls from graphene’s imperfect form.

Study points the way to new photonic devices with one-way traffic lanes.

Experimental physicist explores the wild frontiers of graphene and other ultrathin materials.

Depositing different materials within a single chip layer could lead to more efficient computers.

Results may help improve efficiency of solar cells, energy-harvesting devices.

MIT researchers have found a phenomenon that might lead to more compact, tunable X-ray devices made of graphene.
