A tiny meniscus of water makes it practical to form long graphene nanoribbons less than 10 nanometers wide. Abramova, V.; Slesarev, S.; Tour, J. M. “Meniscus-Mask Lithography for Narrow Graphene Nanoribbons,” ACS Nano 2013, 7, 6894–6898. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/nn403057t
Wet-spun graphene oxide flakes create a more robust carbon fiber
James Tour, the T.T. and W.F. Chao Chair in Chemistry and professor of mechanical engineering and materials science and of computer science, and graduate student Changsheng Xiang are quoted in an article about how graphene oxide flakes can be used to increase the strength of carbon fiber.
