Nottingham University is to join one of the largest-ever European research initiatives, which aims to exploit the so-called ‘wonder material’ graphene.
Amalia Patane, a professor of physics at the university, said: “We are delighted about this exciting partnership with the Graphene Flagship project. From the scalable growth and fabrication of new systems to the demonstration of vertical tunnel transistors and LEDs, our project will help to create new routes to device miniaturisation, fast electronics, sensing and photonics.
"There is great potential for further growth of all these sectors, as the fabrication of two-dimensional systems improves and as new properties are discovered and implemented in functional devices.”
