Adding minuscule Molybdenum Disulfide flakes helps organize polymer chains, paving the way for faster, more efficient bendable electronics.

Thiruvananthapuram

Researchers from Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala and Institute of Microbial Technology, Chandigarh have developed a novel method to synthesize 2 dimensional nanosheets decorated with DNA molecule. The design strategy allows for an ultra dense array of DNA molecules to be grown on 2 D crystalline nanosheets.
