Her research has helped physicists gain fundamental understanding of how atoms and electrons behave when they are ruled by quantum mechanics. Until now, however, resistance at the connections between the carbon structures and conventional silicon electronics has been too high to make the devices practical. Besides graphene, Lau studies nanowires and carbon nanotubes. Title: Low-dimensional carbon nanotube and graphene devices. On a nano-scale, it has been argued that water molecules literally fly through the carbon nanotubes without touching the hydrophobic walls, hence their reduced friction and enhanced transport rates. In recent years, significant progress has been made in understanding device physics and in identifying potential applications of carbon-based electronics. This implosion can't go on forever, though, at least given the laws of physics as we know them. Graphene has been holding the spotlight for so long in nanomaterial research now that we are beginning to forget that carbon nanotubes were once the rock star of nanomaterials for a post-silicon world. Recently discovered carbon nanotubes (1991) and graphene (2004) are intrinsically low-dimensional materials with remarkable electronic properties. Carbon Nanotube and Graphene Device PhysicsH.-S.

Abstract: Electronic devices in which the electrons are confined to fewer than three spatial dimensions are an important tool for physics research and future developments in computing technology. Supervisors Issue Date: 12-Oct-2010. Tweet Graphene and carbon nanotubes could improve the electronics used in computers and mobile phones, reveals new research from the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. And the narrower the CNTs are, the higher the The computer scientists researched the necessary fluid physics thoroughly and thus were able to describe well the flow of water in graphite environments on a nanometre scale. Carbon nanotubes On the contrary, even the simplest device demonstrates the entire range of functionality, all the way from cooling up to an S-shaped I-V characteristic. The researchers believe the technique could also be used to connect multi-layered graphene to metal contacts, though their published research has so far focused on carbon nanotubes. He is the co-author (with Deji Akinwande) of the book Carbon Nanotube and Graphene Device Physics.
