Tel Aviv University researchers have developed a method for precise and energy-efficient control of the stacking structure of graphene, using nanoscale islands in which the layers of the material slide relative to each other and change its electronic properties.

Tel Aviv University researchers have developed a particularly cost-effective method for controlling the structure of graphene.

Researchers have succeeded in changing the stacking arrangement of graphene at the nanometer scale using tiny force and very low energy input, a step that could advance memory components, sensors, and neuromorphic computing.

Researchers from Tel Aviv University have created an electrical memory only two atoms thick

The research deals with a two-dimensional material, a single atom thick layer of boron and nitrogen atoms arranged in a cyclic hexagonal structure. During the experiment, the researchers managed to break the symmetry of this crystal by artificially assembling
