An international research collaboration led by Drexel's Yury Gogotsi, PhD, Distinguished University and Trustee Chair professor in the College of Engineering and director of its
Nanomaterials Research
Group, has created a two - dimensional carbon / sulfur nanolaminate that could be a viable candidate for use as a lithium - sulfur cathode.
The carbon / sulfur nanolaminates synthesized by Gogotsi's
group demonstrate the same uniformity as the infiltrated carbon
nanomaterials, but the sulfur in the nanolaminates is uniformly deposited in the carbon matrix as atomically thin layers and a strong covalent bonding between carbon and sulfur is observed.

Not surprisingly, companies churning out products with
nanomaterials in them tend to argue that existing regulations and testing are adequate to ensure these materials are safe, while environmental
groups tend to call it the other way.
Many research
groups in Korea and other countries have been improving the resolution through the development of
nanomaterials but there has been a limitation to improve the sensors» sensitivity due to the low diffusion transport of biomolcules toward the sensing region.
The discovery driven
group, PETRO Case Consortium at Case Western University, a Park AFM user, investigates the area of molecular, macromolecular, and supramolecular synthesis and structure of polymers and
nanomaterials capable of controlled - assembly to form ultrathin films and dispersions with the aim of finding new technologies and materials that improve and replace established oil and gas field formations.
Led by Prof Coleman, in collaboration with the
groups of Prof Georg Duesberg (AMBER) and Prof. Laurens Siebbeles (TU Delft, Netherlands), the team used standard printing techniques to combine graphene nanosheets as the electrodes with two other
nanomaterials, tungsten diselenide and boron nitride as the channel and separator (two important parts of a transistor) to form an all - printed, all - nanosheet, working transistor.
Experimental physicists in the research
group led by Professor Uwe Hartmann at Saarland University have developed a thin
nanomaterial with superconducting properties.
