Credit: @Science China Press The rapid development of silicon-based transistors leads to its integration getting closer to the limit of Moore's law. Graphene is expected to become the next generation of mainstream chip materials due to its ultra-high carrier mobility. However, it is difficult to obtain a high on/off current ratio for intrinsic graphene-based transistor owing to the absence of bandgap. Graphene nanoribbons, which possess a tunable bandgap and unique optoelectrical properties, have attracted extensive attention and exploration. Nowadays, the preparation of graphene nanoribbons ...

Credit: NASA NASA is funding a major project on the future of autonomous air cargo transportation, and The University of Texas at Austin will be playing a lead role. The COVID-19 vaccine rollout -- the largest global logistics effort since World War II -- has underscored the importance of increasing efficiencies in the global supply chain infrastructure. Autonomous aerial vehicles have the potential to revolutionize cargo transportation. Researchers at UT Austin's Oden Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences and the Department of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics in...

New Project Aims to Re-Define Sensing and Analysis of Hypersonic Vehicles Written by AZoSensorsDec 16 2020 NASA and the Air Force Office of Scientific Research are backing a team of four universities, led by The University of Texas at Austin, in a project to re-define sensing and analysis of hypersonic vehicles, which can travel at least five times the speed of sound and potentially revolutionize space and air travel. The three-year, $3.3 million project is funded by NASA's University Leadership Initiative, and the team's goal is to create a new paradigm in sensing for hypersonic vehicles, wh...
