Graphene nanoscrolls are formed by decoration of magnetic nanoparticles

Thursday, August 15, 2013 - 07:30 in Physics & Chemistry

Researchers at Umea University, together with researchers at Uppsala University and Stockholm University, show in a new study how nitrogen doped graphene can be rolled into perfect Archimedean nano scrolls by adhering magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles on the surface of the graphene sheets. The new material may have very good properties for application as electrodes in for example Li-ion batteries.
