New Study Reveals More about Graphene’s Electronic Properties

The University of Manchester researchers, who identified graphene in 2004, have published a detailed report about the electronic properties of the material in the Nature Physics journal.

The discoverers along with the scientists at the universities of Moscow and Madrid have investigated the impact of electron interactions on graphene’s electronic properties using superior quality graphene instruments that are produced by suspending graphene sheets in a vacuum medium. This method could eliminate the majority of unnecessary scattering processes for electrons in graphene, which could facilitate the scientists to clearly witness the effect of electron-on-electron interaction in the material.

Due to its very different electrons, graphene demonstrates novel electronic properties, which replicate those of massless relativistic particles like photons. With these properties, graphene is at times referred as 'CERN on a desk', which indicates the Large Hadron Collider located in Switzerland.

A unique two-dimensional material, graphene demonstrates very high mechanical strength as well as thermal and electron conductivities due to the super quality of the crystals and extreme velocities of the electrons. Novoselov, one of the discoverers, stated that the results of this specific experiment would be applied immediately in practical electronic instruments. The extended study about the electronic properties of graphene would realize the development of graphene electronics, he added.

The research work will pave the way to numerous electronic prospects as research universities and institutes throughout the globe are already in the process of developing devices, including photo detectors, ultrafast transistors and touch screens.
