Graphene Nanoribbon Photovoltaics
Background Graphene and graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), due to their excellent electronic and mechanical properties, have long been of interest in the field of electronic applications. GNRs, in particular, have a tunable bandgap controlled by their width, which provides a flexible platform for various applications. However, the application of GNRs has...

Ambiently Dried Aerogel for Thermal Insulation in High-Temperature Applications
Introduction Innovators at Michigan State University (MSU) have developed a novel porous silica-based aerogel material and the process for its fabrication. In contrast to the supercritically dried aerogel, a related material, the MSU approach uses gel and liquid extraction. Evaporation of the precursor solvent is performed at room temperature and...
