A new study in Nature Communications reports gate-controlled inversion of spin signals in graphene superlattices, a result that adds a practical control knob to graphene spintronics research and could inform future low-power device designs.
A graphene superlattice study published April 15 shows that magnetic proximity effects can be tuned electrically, with bilayer devices reaching spin polarizations approaching 50%.
Monash University researchers reported a new class of disordered mosaic metasurfaces on April 10, 2026, arguing that controlled disorder can increase the functional density of ultra-thin optical materials rather than degrade them.
A March 27 Nature Communications paper is putting a high-profile graphene thermal conductivity claim under the microscope, arguing that the reported performance was likely overstated and that the experimental setup may have distorted the result. The dispute matters because thermal management remains one of graphene’s most commercially important promises.
A Nature Communications study published April 15 reports an additively manufactured aluminum alloy that pairs strength, ductility and heat resistance — a combination long sought for lightweight parts that must survive elevated temperatures.
A Nature Communications paper published April 3, 2026 describes a mechanofusion-based dry mixing process that can form functional coatings on nickel-rich cathode material for solid-state batteries, including nanometer-thin layers and thicker mixed-conducting matrices.
