Critical & Emerging Technologies

Scientists at the CSIRO and RMIT University have discovered a new two-dimensional nano-material that could pave the way for the creation of even smaller computing devices that offer big improvements in processing speed.

Printed electronic labels and stickers are expected to play important role aa remote sensors within the Internet-of-things concept.

The team led by Junhao Lin, a Vanderbilt University Ph.D. student and visiting scientist at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), have developed ultra thin and flexible metallic wire that is just three atoms wide.
