Transforming graphene into a semiconductor
New technique creates the necessary "band gap," opening the possibility of new electronic and optical devices
May 20, 2013
[+]

It’s been a long-sought goal that has proved elusive: how to engineer a property called a band gap into graphene, needed to use graphene in making transistors and other electronic devices.

Now MIT researchers have taken a major step toward making graphene with a band gap.

The new technique involves placing a sheet of graphene — a carbon-based material whose structure is… read more
