The work is <a href=\"https:\/\/arxiv.org\/abs\/2605.18407\">published<\/a> on arXiv and is yet to be peer-reviewed.<\/p>\n<p>The platform integrates robotics, computer vision, and a multi-agent architecture.<\/p>\n<p>Qumus operates in a robotic mini-laboratory, executing the entire cycle from protocol planning to result analysis and report preparation.<\/p>\n<p>Without human intervention, the system isolated graphene flakes using mechanical exfoliation and fabricated nanoscale devices from atomically thin materials, including a graphene field-effect transistor based on a van der Waals structure.<\/p>\n<p>To find a method for obtaining a graphene flake larger than 200 \u03bcm\u00b2, the AI examined four parameters: temperature, contact time, number of press cycles, and tape detachment speed. Over more than four hours and five optimization cycles, the platform produced a fragment measuring 245 \u03bcm\u00b2.<\/p>\n<p>Qumus is capable of correcting errors. In one test, the system detected the absence of a silicon chip, reassembled the plan, and repeated exfoliation on a new substrate. In another, it corrected the misclassification of hexagonal boron nitride as graphene.<\/p>\n<p>During transistor assembly, the robot conducted a 90-minute dry transfer involving 30 physical operations and 18 decision-making stages.<\/p>\n<p>A hierarchical network of agents based on large language models is used to manage the laboratory.
