Briefing: Laser-modified graphene enables molecule-thick films to grow only where needed

Editorial Staff · 1 min read

Researchers have introduced a laser modification technique that allows for the localized growth of metal-organic materials, specifically enabling the formation of films that are only one molecule thick.

This advancement is significant for material science, as it permits precise control over the deposition of materials, potentially enhancing the efficiency of various applications.

The research was conducted by teams from the University of Jyväskylä and Aalto University, and the findings were published on March 25, 2026.
