This is going to revolutionalize the world, I reckon.

When I saw this last night on BBC, I found it truly fascinating. May be some of you already know about it but I came to know about this the first time, hence you see the excitement :smiley:

Hmm given that article is from 2004... I'm sure!

We work in carbon materials and have just started growing graphene layers. Not convinced about its usefulness in the real world (theoretically it looks good) but it brings in money.

stoppit,

I could not find the exact news earlier so I posted an old article, but the following clip was part of the news I actually saw last night with more details:

The guys who created are lecturers at my uni. Russians.
Amazing development.

I wish people would stop saying 'created'. They just discovered a simple way to isolate it.

And now, everyone and their right toe is is growing graphene layers using chemical vapour deposition on copper or nickel foil .

Geim delivered a graphene lecture at my Uni around the time he won the nobel prize. It was delivered in Comic Sans. Nuthin more to say.

Though I wasn't aware of the recent progress in right toe graphene growth.
