Drawing inspiration from the Japanese art of paper folding, we now get paper that can drink sunlight by folding and unfolding. Engineers from a Milan-based greentech startup has decided to consider ...

(Phys.org) —Despite graphene's many impressive properties, its lack of a bandgap limits its use in electronic applications. In a new study, scientists have theoretically shown that a bandgap can be ...

So we've all heard the Origami spin by now, right? Today brought us a bit more info with "find out 3.9.06..." on the project website (and it looks like that may be all we see from Microsoft today). Of ...

Periodically folded graphene sheets with enhanced spin-orbit interaction due to curvature effects can carry spin-polarized currents and have gaps in the electronic spectrum in the presence of weak ...
