Graphene is an atom-thick sheet of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb pattern. Graphene is considered to be the thinnest, strongest and most conductive material in the world - both electrically and thermally. All of these properties are exciting to researchers and businesses around the world—as gr Read More

Learn how to make graphene. Who knew the toughest materials could be found with just a pencil and a piece of Scotch tape?Really? you can?Yes, you can. In fact, even with those two things, last year in 2010, two physicists were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for their discoveries.Their discovery Read More

Found at the end of a pencil (literally!), graphene is a pure carbon wonder material like diamond or coal. And, just as structure determines the difference between a diamond and a lump of coal, the magic of graphene lies in its amazing structure.Graphene is as close to two-dimensional as anything in Read More

Several companies in China are now commercializing graphene heating elements embedded in wearables and other devices. Many of these devices are available now, shipping globally through retailers such as Amazon.Graphene is an excellent conductor of heat, and its use in heating devices is somewhat sur Read More

What is graphene?Graphene is the thinnest material known to man, only one atom thick and about 200 times stronger than steel. It is a remarkable substance in itself, with many surprising properties, earning it the title of "wonder material" time and time again. Graphene is an excellent conductor of Read More

Graphene and BatteriesGraphene, a sheet of carbon atoms bound together in a honeycomb lattice pattern, is widely regarded as a "wonder material" because of its myriad surprising properties. It is an efficient conductor of electrical and thermal energy, is extremely light chemically inert, and is fle Read More
