TL;DR

Physicists at the University of California, Irvine have discovered nanoscale electronic devices that can transform into many different shapes and sizes, unlike traditional solid-state devices. The devices are made of single-atom thick sheets of graphene attached to gold wires that can be transformed into a variety of different configurations on the fly. The discovery could fundamentally change the nature of electronic devices and the way scientists research atomic-scale quantum materials. The team expects their work could usher in a new era of quantum science research.
