Researchers reported a heating-rate-controlled chemical vapor deposition method that can grow twisted 2D transition metal dichalcogenide heterostructures with better twist-angle control, a practical advance for moiré materials.
A new Nature Sensors study published on March 31, 2026, describes a self-powered chemical sensor built around graphene, MoS2 and silicon, a design aimed at lowering power demands in compact sensing devices.
Researchers at the University of Arkansas and the University of Michigan say they have demonstrated the first ultra-low-power temperature sensor powered by graphene-based solar cells, a battery-free design that could reduce maintenance in remote monitoring and wearable devices.
A Manchester-led team has used graphene encapsulation to capture the first atomic-resolution images of monolayer transition metal diiodides, a reactive 2D material class that normally degrades within seconds of air exposure.
Scientists have reported a new way to visualize the moiré potential in rhombohedral graphene superlattices, offering a clearer look at one of the most closely watched classes of advanced materials. The April 2026 Nature Materials result is a measurement advance, not a commercial launch, but it could help speed device design in atom-thin electronics.
A new study published March 24 in Nature Nanotechnology reports reversible control of graphene stacking at nanometer scale with minimal energy, a result that could inform future low-power electronic and computing architectures.
