Pivoting hooks of graphene’s chemical cousin could revolutionize work of electron microscopes

Monday, November 1, 2010 - 11:30 in Physics & Chemistry

The single layer material graphene was the subject of a Nobel prize this year, and now scientists have found molecular hooks on the surface of its close chemical cousin, graphene oxide, that could provide massive benefits to researchers using transmission electron microscopes. These hooks could even be used in building molecular scale mechanisms.
