The planet is in jeopardy. Humans are both causing and contending with deforestation, ocean acidification, and climbing temperatures, to name a few of our less-than-benign legacies. In an uncertain future, these technologies can be a force for progress. Of course,…
Graphene is absolutely amazing stuff, the lightest, strongest stuff we know of. It’s ultra-light, yet immensely tough , It’s 200 times stronger than steel, but it is incredibly flexible and It’s the thinnest material possible as well as being transparent. The idea…
Graphene is more conductive to electrical charge and heat than silicon, which is used in semiconductors today. At the same time, it manages to be stronger than steel while still remaining flexible, which according to Samsung makes it “the perfect…
Researchers at the University of Michigan have developed the first room-temperature light detector that can see the entire infrared spectrum of colors. And it can be small and compact, because graphene is insane and only one atom thick learn…
