Lauburu-shaped nanografenes: a breakthrough in quantum materials

A group of scientists from the Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC) and the University of Trieste succeeded in synthesizing a nanografene molecule in the form of lauburu.The latter is the iconic Basque four-armed symbol.This achievement constitutes an interesting mix between nanotechnology and cultural symbolism.What are nanografenes?Nanografenes are small carbon structures with exceptional properties.They are called to transform fields …
