Nanometer-size monolayerandmultilayer pits on highly orientedpyrolyticgraphite (HOPG) can beused astemplates to preparemetalandsemiconductornanostructures.
Germany's SGL Carbon (6, SGG) has fallen 33% since May and has yet to recover as it supplies primarily the hard-hit steel and semiconductor industries with carbon and graphite products, which include electrodes, laboratory components and furnace linings.
