News Graphenea Europe

Graphenea successfully closes the year 2019, looking back on many projects completed, new ones started, a continued streak of published research results and the launch of a new product.

We launched new projects together with our industrial and academic partners throughout Europe to satisfy technological and market needs across industries such as energy production, displays and imaging, gas...

The presence and quantity of potassium (K⁺) ions in liquids has been sensed with high resolution and selectivity using graphene field effect transistors (GFET). Quick and reliable measurement of ions at very low concentrations is critical to a range of applications, including food and beverage production, pharmaceutical production, clinical applications, and water quality monitoring.

The most...

Graphene can be used to enhance photonics, as a detector for light, an optoelectronic transceiver, or as part of high-resolution imaging systems.

A surprising application of graphene is its use in photodetectors. Light detection capabilities of graphene are inherently limited because a single sheet of the material absorbs only ~2.3% of light across the visible part of the spectrum. Such high...

Graphenea announces the launch of a new product highly flat monolayer graphene. The graphene is grown by CVD on copper thin film on a 2 sapphire substrate. With extremely low roughness that is less than 4 nm, this new product is targeted at applications in photonics, high-performance electronics, magnetic memory, and freestanding membranes.

The product aims to meet wafer-scale integration...

Graphenea and 19 partners from 14 countries launched an initiative to fill the skills gap and boost workforce diversity by tightening collaboration between the microelectronics industry and education providers. The project, dubbed METIS Microelectronics Training, Industry and Skills will focus on the skills and related training needed to support emerging verticals such as artificial intelligence...
