Optical Properties and Applications of Graphene Nanoparticles

Graphene is in many respects a nanomaterial with its unique properties. Graphene is the thinnest material comprised of atoms. Graphene is the only one atomic layer thick and hence an almost ideal representation of a two-dimensional material in our three-dimensional world.
Graphene is a two-dimensional material made of carbon atoms with the shape of an hexagonal lattice. Graphene first isolated in 2004, by Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov in the University of Manchester by means of mechanical exfoliation of graphite. Since this time, graphene nanoparticles' properties and potential applications have been the object of study of many research teams around the world in almost all science areas. Graphene nanoparticles with an atomic thickness have excellent mechanical properties, electrical conductivity, optical properties, thermal conductivity and impermeability, which makes it attractive for many applications.
Graphene offers several advantages. Amongst all the properties of graphene, its optical properties will likely be the ones with most practical applications in the short-term, mainly in nanoscale applications .
As all we know there is an increase in data traffic in the years due to increase in number of internet and mobile devices users. Because all of us create big challenges in terms of data network management. When we think about bandwidth and energy consumption, today's data processing optoelectronic devices will no longer have the capacity to cope with future network requirements. Graphene nanoparticles can help us to solve this problem.
The other area where graphene nanoparticles can be used on a commercial scale is that in optoelectronics; specifically touchscreens, liquid crystal displays (LCD) and organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). Graphene is an almost completely transparent material and is able to optically transmit up to 97.7% of light. It is also highly conductive, as we have previously mentioned and so it would work very well in optoelectronic applications such as LCD touchscreens for smartphones, tablet and desktop computers and televisions.
For our needs in the future, Graphene nanoparticles might be the key elements. Because Graphene nanoparticles have ultra-broad band optical response and excellent non-linear optical properties. And these properties make Graphene a fabulous material for developing next generation photonic and optoelectronic devices.

Titanium Carbide Powders and Applications

Titanium carbide which has the chemical formula of TiC attracted great interest for many structural applications due to its extremely high melting temperature, high hardness, high chemical resistance and good electrical conductivity. Therefore titanium carbide can be used in cutting tools, grinding wheels, wear-resistant coatings, high temperature heat exchangers, magnetic recording heads, turbine engine seals, and bullet-proof vests, etc. In addition, a promising field of application comprises plasma and flame spraying processes in air, where titanium carbide-based powders show high-phase stability. TiC(Titanium Carbide Powder) (325 mesh, 99,9+%)  can also be used in biomedical implant devices. Materials used for biomedical implant devices must satisfy a variety of property demands, which are often mutually exclusive. Further, different parts of a device demand different material properties. These factors often make it difficult to manufacture a medical device using a...

Hydroxyapatite Nanopowders and Their Applications

Hydroxyapatite, is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium apatite with the formula Ca 5 (PO 4 ) 3 (OH). Pure hydroxyapatite powder is white. Naturally occurring apatites can, however, also have brown, yellow, or green colorations, comparable to the discolorations of dental fluorosis. Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticles (50 nm, 99.95+%)  has been widely used as a biocompatible ceramic in many areas of medicine, but mainly for contact with bone tissue, due to its resemblance to mineral bone. In mammals, the skeleton presents a carbonated and partially substituted apatite, based on nanocrystal aggregates, and associated with collagen, building up 3-D structures present in various bone tissue conformations like trabecular or cancellous bone. There has been growing interest in developing bioactive synthetic ceramics that could closely mimic natural apatite characteristics. As mentioned before,  Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder  is the main inorganic constituent of bon...

New Way of Deaf-Mute Communication with 3D Graphene

Image retrieved from: http://blogs.rsc.org/cc/2016/09/01/3d-graphene-adds-dimension-to-deaf%E2%80%93mute-communication/ Chinese scientists have developed wearable electronic device with conductive 3D graphene structure to translate sign language into written text. This technology can be applied by injecting graphene ink from a syringe under printed electronic field. For medical field, such as adhesive patches which determine heart, brain signal and neural activity, wearable and bio-integrated medical devices are very important. Due to noticeable properties of cast graphene, for example a 2D honeycomb lattice, excellent mechanical and electrical behaviors, Graphene has an important material in warble technology. However, it is difficult to preserve advantages of Graphene material in a 3D material which has an information about forces from every angle. Yanlin Song  and co-workers at the University of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, and Shenyang Jianzhu University...
