“Antennas made of graphene can be made much smaller in all dimensions than a metal wire antenna. It can be made to be on the order of a micrometer or a few nanometers,” Avouris says.

Graphene-based nano-antennas may enable networks of tiny machines Date: December 12, 2013 Source: Georgia Institute of Technology Summary: By taking advantage of the unique electronic properties ...

Based on a honeycomb network of carbon atoms, graphene could generate a type of electronic surface wave that would allow antennas just one micron long and 10 to 100 nanometers wide to do the work ...

SES RFID Solutions and AUO of Taiwan have developed a 13micron plastic NFC chip and a process to produce RFID paper inlays without using thermo-plastic substrates. Typically antennas for RFID inlays ...

Dec 12, 2013: Graphene-based nano-antennas may enable networks of tiny machines (Nanowerk News) Networks of nanometer-scale machines offer exciting potential applications in medicine, industry, ...

Now researchers at Georgia Tech have invented a plasmonic graphene nano-antenna that can be efficiently used at millimeter radio wavelengths, taking one more step toward smart dust. SUBSCRIBE LOG IN ...

However, products made with graphene are getting closer to hitting the market, and a low-cost 3D-printed antenna reported last week in the journal Applied Physics Letters could be among the first ...

Scientists at The University of Manchester have revealed a graphene antenna capable of delivering cheaper, more powerful and more sustainable RFID tags and wireless sensors. Made from compressed ...

Printable graphene antennas could boost the graphene manufacturing industry, too, Hu said. And that, in turn, could help graphene adoption elsewhere.

One key way to reduce the cost of passive ultrahigh-frequency RFID transponders is to reduce the cost of the antenna. Companies have tried printing antennas, but the cost is often just as high as the ...
