The Lowdown on Graphene [Infographic]

Working in tech, you’ve probably heard more than a whisper of the 21st century’s new(ish) wonder material: graphene. First extracted from graphite in 2004, the super-fine material (at one atom thick, it’s considered to be two-dimensional) is taking a while to come into mainstream use while researchers figure out more about what it can do, […]

Using Light To Create Graphene

Graphene is probably one of the most talked about nanomaterials of the 21st century. As fate would have it, the core of number 2 pencils was meant to be much more than just for bubbling scantron sheets. “We fooled nature by first making a three-dimensional material, which is graphite, and then pulling an individual layer […]
