MIT Team Studies the Fracture of Imperfect Graphene Materials

February 9, 2015 | 2015 News in Brief | ceemit

Experimental results have shown that, despite significant defects at grain boundaries, the strength of polycrystalline graphene, a two-dimensional carbon material discovered recently, is comparable to that of the pristine defect-free material, although it is widespread knowledge […]
