Graphene Week, one of the most influential graphene international conferences, was this year organised by NanoGune on 10-14 September. This conference is the main event of the Future & Emerging Technologies Graphene Flagship initiative of the European Commission and was focused on the science, technology and emerging applications of graphene. Among the 600 participants, GRACE… Read More

A mid-term meeting of the  16NRM01 GRACE project will be held  in Graphenea (San Sebastian, Spain). The meeting will involve presentations from the work packages leaders describing the progress to date, following by a scientific workshop and stakeholder committee discussions.  A visit to Graphenea’s premises will also take place. 16NRM01 GRACE mid-term meeting agenda 16NRM01… Read More

NPL – the National Physical Laboratory – has developed a unique system allows transport measurements under highly-controlled environments, enabling environmentally specific graphene characterisation. In summary, this system offers the following services: Magneto-transport measurements of patterned and un-patterned samples; Operation in ambient and vacuum (P≈10-7 mbar) conditions; Four gases dilution down to 5 ppb; Humidity ranges 0–90%; Heating… Read More

INRiM – Istituto Nazionale di Ricerca Metrologica – is developing an experimental set-up for electrical resistance tomography (ERT). The system, placed in an electromagnetic shielded environment at constant temperature, performs series of four-terminal trans-resistance measurements in different contact configurations by means of a current source, a voltmeter and a reed-relay switch unit. dgflick album xpress… Read More
