A new class of materials known as MXenes may be able to offer just that functionality, with microscopically thin films serving as shields that can be switched on and off at will. A Faraday cage ...

MXenes are made of atomically thin layers of transition metal carbides, nitrides or carbonitrides. They originate in what's called the MAX phase, whose name describes its signature components: the ...

Materials scientists are exploring the physical properties of MXenes, a fast-growing family of two-dimensional materials with potential for many nanotechnology applications. A research team led by ...

The mighty family of nanomaterials known as MXenes will star in a three-day international conference at their birthplace at Drexel on Aug. 1–3, 2022. "MXenes: Addressing Global Challenges with ...

This makes them potentially very useful for future high-tech electronics or energy storage. Until recently, these materials—known as MXenes, pronounced “max-eens”—were as labor-intensive as good ...
