Graphene Flagship

June 21, 2019

The Graphene Flagship is the EU’s biggest research initiative. With a budget of €1 billion, it represents a new form of joint, coordinated research initiative on an unprecedented scale

Health monitoring, food inspection and night vision based wearables made from graphene

The Graphene Pavilion, organised by the Graphene Flagship and supported by the European Commission and GSMA, is returning to Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2019 with over 20 graphene-based prototypes, four of which are developed by the Graphene Flagship partner ICFO, based in Barcelona. These technologies aim to turn mobile phones into life saving devices. The first of ICFO’s

A natural human enzyme can biodegrade graphene

A natural human enzyme can biodegrade graphene, scientists from the Graphene Flagship have announced. Degradation of pristine graphene occurs in the human body when interacting with a naturally occurring enzyme found in the lung, announced Graphene Flagship partners; the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), University of Strasbourg, Karolinska Institute and University of Castilla–La Mancha (UCLM). Graphene based

Supramolecular electronics open the door to new high-performance devices

Graphene and related materials hold great potential for technological applications such as electronics, sensors, and energy storage devices, among others. Thanks to their high surface sensitivity, these materials are an ideal platform to study the interplay between molecular assemblies at the nanoscale and macroscopic electrical phenomena. Researchers within the Graphene Flagship designed a molecule that

Squeezing light to one atom will pave the way to ultra-small optical switches, detectors and sensors

In a recent study published in Science, researchers at ICFO – The Institute of Photonic Sciences in Barcelona, Spain, along with other members of the Graphene Flagship, reached the ultimate level of light confinement. They have been able to confine light down to a space one atom, the smallest possible. This will pave the way

Terahertz waves and graphene together for the future of communication

By utilizing terahertz waves in electronics, future data traffic can get a big boost forward. So far, the terahertz (THz) frequency has not been optimally applied to data transmission, but by using graphene, researchers at Chalmers University of Technology have come one step closer to a possible paradigm shift for the electronic industry. Over 60

Silly Putty plus graphene can detect and measure the steps of small spiders

Graphene Flagship researchers from Trinity College Dublin in collaboration with the National Graphene Institute (NGI) at The University of Manchester, have used graphene to make a polysilicone polymer, known commonly as the novelty children’s material Silly Putty®, conduct electricity. Using this conductive polymer they found that they were about to create sensitive electromechanical sensors. The
