A new plasma-based technological design boosts graphene production by more than 22%
Escrito por UCC+i
A UCO study manages to optimize the energy yield of the graphene synthesis process by building a Faraday cage around a plasma torch. The process, which has already been registered for evaluation as a patent, could be an important step towards the industrial-scale production of one of the most promising materials in recent years
