Water could hold answer to graphene nanoelectronics

Tuesday, October 26, 2010 - 11:20 in Physics & Chemistry

Researchers have developed a new method for using water to tune the band gap of the nanomaterial graphene, opening the door to new graphene-based transistors and nanoelectronics. By exposing a graphene film to humidity, researchers were able to create a band gap in graphene -- a critical prerequisite to creating graphene transistors.
