BASF and researchers at the National University of Singapore’s Graphene Research Centre have formed a partnership to develop graphene for use in electronic devices, including organic light-emitting diodes. Their goal is to layer graphene films with organic materials to create more efficient and flexible devices. The Singapore researchers will synthesize and characterize the graphene; BASF will provide organic active materials. After researching graphene for years, BASF is now looking to speed up its device development, the company says.
