Scientists have shown how electricity is transported in printed 2D materials, paving the way for design of flexible devices for healthcare and beyond.

Mathematical simulations show the new approach may offer faster, cheaper, and more accurate detection, including identifying new variants.

A new simulation shows that a unique 2D superconducting material could make light-bending devices cheaper and easier to produce.

Electrolyte-gated carbon nanotube field-effect transistor biosensors detect a wide range of biomolecules but have a few challenges to overcome.

The DNA-FAIRYLIGHTS project aims to lift the digital data storage onto a new level by increasing the binary zero/one concept to the broad spectrum of different colours, where multiple colours integrated in the DNA sequence can encode information in a more compact fashion.

Researchers discovered that injecting elements of the soft metal, indium, into a two-dimensional material called molybdenum disulphide, could improve electrical conductivity and reduce power consumption of the optical synapses used in the development of bionic eyes.

Researchers have demonstrated a method for making large-area superlattices - layered structures containing 2D lattices of sulfur and tungsten - that can achieve light-matter coupling.
