Is producing ‘defective’ graphene the new scale-up solution?

By Stephanie Liverani / August 19, 2015

Researchers at National Cheng Kung University in Taiwan have developed a simple, cost-effective approach to produce graphene in a way that they say broadens the material’s potential commercial applications—they’re calling it ‘defective’ graphene.
