Characterization of graphene segregated on Ni

Yu Q., Lian J., Chen Y-P, Li H., Lian J., Pei S-S, University of Houston, US

We report a surface segregation approach to synthesize high quality graphenes on Ni under ambient pressure. Graphenes were segregated from Ni surfaces by carbon dissolving at high temperature and cooling down with various cooling rates. [...]

In vivo imaging by luminescent carbon nanotubes

Shi D., Guo Y., Dong Z., Lian J., Wang W., Liu G., Ewing R., University of Cincinnati, US

There is currently an increasing need for early detection of cancer before anatomic anomalies are visible. A major challenge in cancer diagnosis is to be able to locally biomark the cancer cells in clinical pathology [...]
