A unique new material that shrinks when it is heated and expands when it is cooled could help enable the ultra-stable space telescopes ...

In a scientific first, researchers from Vanderbilt University and the University of California, San Diego, have generated a ...

Box 1: Covalent structures. It is well known that under ambient conditions, carbon crystallizes mainly in the diamond (sp3) and layered (sp2, graphite) structures.

The human muscular system is complex and has many functions in the body, like mobility and stability. Learn more about the muscular system here.

This paper explores the thermal characteristics of a microstrip meander-line slow wave structure (SWS) with thermal pyrolytic graphite (TPG) layer operating at ...

Abstract This paper presents a study about the dielectric constant εr, dielectric loss tangent tan g (δ) and effective electrical conductivity σe of graphene, graphite and graphene-bakelite ...

Graphite is a mineral composed of stacked sheets of carbon atoms with a hexagonal crystal structure. It has varied industrial applications, including in electronics, dry batteries, lubrication, ...

We report the formation of a porous network structure of octacyno-metal-free phthalocyanine (H2Pc(CN)8) on a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite surface. The porous structure shows a quadratic packing ...

Selective separation and recovery of precious metals with sustainable solar energy via adsorption and photocatalytic reduction processes has emerged as a promising green and low-carbon technology with ...

The problem of surface waves usually degrades the performance of planar circuits and antennas, to reduce its effects, the electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structures are applied to suppress these ...

The structure slowly evolves toward the ideal graphite structure, and the enhanced crystal formation is indicated by the appearance of higher and sharp peaks. Fig. 3 gives the Raman spectra of GC ...
