Folding 2D materials gives them new properties useful for quantum communications – new research – The Conversation UK
Quantum communication has the potential to provide truly secure global communications.
Graphene is a material made of carbon atoms one layer thick, arranged in a honeycomb structure. It has been used to make materials stronger, create ultra-high frequency components for communications, boost battery performance and even used to make COVID-19 tests. Its the archetypal two-dimensional (2D) material but theres much more to 2D materials than graphene.
Since graphene was first isolated in 2004, research has expanded to the creation of other, non-carbon 2D materials. Now there are many…
