Polydimethylglutarimide (PMGI) is the key to positioning sensors made from 2D materials permanently onto curved surfaces, according to Rice University in Texas. Its research team was seeking a sacrificial layer – one on which 2D materials could be made, then used as a carrier film for transport to the target surface, while disappearing once the ...
