Graphene Continues to Break Records and Revolutionize Electronics.

Researchers at The University of Manchester have discovered record-high magnetoresistance in graphene, reaching above 100% in magnetic fields of standard permanent magnets. This discovery could help solve longstanding mysteries surrounding strange metals and linear magnetoresistance, and has potential applications in magnetic sensors found in cars and computers. The researchers used high-quality graphene in its intrinsic state, creating a plasma of fast-moving Dirac fermions that demonstrated a surprisingly high mobility despite frequent scattering.

Graphene Sets New Physics Record with High Magnetoresistance

Researchers from the University of Manchester and the University of Lancaster have discovered that high-quality graphene can record levels of magnetoresistance at room temperature, without the need to push the temperature down towards absolute zero. The heated graphene exhibited a magnetoresistance response greater than 100 percent, which has never been seen before in any material, setting a new record. The researchers used a pure and unmodified form of graphene, ensuring that only temperature could change its conductivity. The study adds significantly to our understanding of how materials and their physics work, and sheds more light on just how special and versatile graphene is.
