    Organic electronics in the form of organic solar cells — thin, flexible, and printable on everyday surfaces — promise a sustainable future in renewable energy. Unlike traditional silicon-based solar panels, organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices rely on carbon-based polymers, a class of molecules more commonly associated with plastic bags than power generation. Among these, a family of materials built around a chemical unit called benzodithiophene (BDT) has emerged as a star performer.

    In the realm of modern physics, few materials have captured the imagination quite like graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice. Its remarkable properties, such as exceptional electrical conductivity and strength, have made it a cornerstone of research into quantum materials. A recent study published in Nature 1 takes this fascination a step further by exploring how electrons interact with vibrations in a special configuration called twisted bilayer graphene (TBG).

    Nanotechnology is like a playground for scientists, where they tinker with materials at the scale of atoms to create new tools and devices with extraordinary properties. One of the most exciting areas in this field involves nanographenes, which are tiny pieces of graphene—a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb pattern, known for its strength and ability to conduct electricity.

    Imagine peering through a microscope, marvelling at the intricate dance of cells, proteins, or tiny structures within a living organism. These images, known as bioimages, are a treasure trove of information for scientists studying life’s mysteries, from how cells divide to how diseases disrupt tissues. But analysing these images is no small feat. The sheer volume of data and the complexity of patterns often require advanced computational tools.

    Imagine sending a tiny particle, like an electron, through a material so thin it’s just a single layer of atoms. You’d expect it to take a certain amount of time to pass through, right? Maybe a little longer if the material gets thicker, or shorter if it’s super thin. But what if the electron seemed to zip through faster than it should, or even appeared to arrive before it was supposed to?
