Beating graphene at its own game
Abstract:
Over the last few years, you'd struggle to have not at least heard mention of an extremely strong, electrically- and thermally-conductive, one-atom thick material called graphene. But now, researchers at the University of Kentucky are looking to create a new material that might just boast even more impressive and useful attributes.
