Scientists are reporting development of a new form of buckypaper, which eliminates a major drawback of these sheets of carbon nanotubes -- 50,000 times thinner than a human hair, 10 times lighter than steel, but up to 250 times stronger -- with potential uses ranging from body armor to next-generation batteries. Their report appears in the journal ACS Nano.

Home Introduction Buckyballs for Spintronics research granted 1.5 million from the ERC Tweet Financial Spintronics-Info Researcher Michel de Jong of the NanoElectronics group MESA+ in the University of Twente Netherlands received a 1.5 million grant from the European Research Council to fund his Spintronics work this is his second ERC grant Michel de Jong is focusing on organic materials , in particular in Buckyballs spherical C60 molecules held together by weak bonds sandwiched between two magnetic . materials Michel explains that these molecules have very little effect on electron spin , which is a great advantage as it enables them to store spin information for much longer periods of time than silicon . Buckyballs have also been used to create Graphene Quantum Dot . s via UOT Jan 22,
