Ball Milling

Ball milling is a process for grinding a material. It involves A slightly inclined or horizontal rotating cylinder that is partially filled with balls,which grind…

Bandgap

A bandgap is an energy range in which electrons cannot exist. A bandgap is required to enable electronic switching. Semiconductor materials like silicon are used…

Bilayer Graphene

This is simply two layers of graphene. This type of graphene was synthesized by Geim and Novosolev in their first experiments and would fall into…

Biosensors

A biosensor is an analytical device that can detect a biomolecule-related element with an appropriate transducer to generate a measurable signal from the sample. In…

Black Phosphorus

Black phosphorus is the thermodynamically stable form of phosphorus at room temperature and pressure. In 2014, researchers were able to exfoliate the material to thin…

Bottom-Up Manufacturing

Bottom-up manufacturing involves building up your product up, atom by atom, often through guided self-assembly. CVD deposition techniques would be considered bottom-up manufacturing because the…

Bulk Supply

Bulk supply is a term that is associated with applications that require material levels reaching many tons per year of graphene, such as nanocomposite inks.…
