The unique properties and atomic thickness of two-dimensional (2D) materials enable
smaller and better nanoelectromechanical sensors with novel functionalities. During the last …

The high flexibility, impermeability and strength of graphene membranes are key properties
that can enable the next generation of nanomechanical sensors. However, for capacitive …

At the few‐atom‐thick limit, transition‐metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exhibit strongly
interconnected structural and optoelectronic properties. The possibility to tailor the latter by …

The demand for graphene-based devices is rapidly growing but there are significant
challenges for developing scalable and repeatable processes for the manufacturing of …

Despite theoretical predictions that graphene should be impermeable to all gases, practical
experiments on sealed graphene nanodrums show small leak rates. Thus far, the exact …

We describe the fabrication and characterisation of a capacitive pressure sensor formed by
an ultra-thin graphene–polymer heterostructure membrane spanning a large array of micro …

Atomically thin materials, such as graphene, are the ultimate building blocks for nanoscale
devices. But although their synthesis and handling today are routine, all efforts thus far have …

Graphene's nickname 'miracle material'normally means the material superior properties.
However, all these characteristics are only the outward manifestation of the wonderful nature …

Tensioned graphene membranes are of interest both for fundamental physics and for
applications ranging from water filtration to nanomechanical resonators. It is generally …

Electro-optic modulators based on micro-electromechanical systems have found success as
elements for optical projectors, for simplified optical spectrometers, and as reflective-type …
