Researchers turn Edison's 1879 light bulb into a mini graphene reactor
Posted on Friday February 13, 2026
Graphene is a two-dimensional lattice of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal pattern, renowned for its exceptional electrical conductivity, thermal transport, and mechanical strength. Turbostratic graphene is a stacked variant in which the layers are rotated and misaligned, weakening interlayer coupling and making the material easier to process at scale.Read Entire Article Continue Reading »
Driverless freight hits a new milestone with Aurora's 1,000-mile route
