The material of the future
Thick similar to that of an atom, this material will revolutionize the world of technology.
The Nobel Prize in Physics 2010 has relapsed after six years of work, researchers of Russian origin Andre Geim and Novoselov Konstantin discover a new graphite material while studying at the University of Manchester. Although it was known of their existence in theory able to isolate the graphite and that this material is composed of several layers of graphene.
Graphene is only one carbon atom thick with unique properties.
This hexagonal cell is formed by creating and following a honeycomb structure. Is this what makes it really tough -200 times more than steel-but also very flexible and transparent as well as an excellent electrical conductor it becomes a single material.
"The Substitute Si?
According to research, graphene appears to be more and better in every way: thinner, more flexible, tougher, better driver, not only can be used to manufacture devices, as the connections between them. And besides, his treatment is not as delicate and expensive. In contrast, the silicon takes advantage many years of experience and research and large investments.
First
applications
were fabricated transistors that operate at much higher frequencies than those permitted in silicon. IBM introduced a prototype 100 GHz measured in Review February, a English, Tomás Palacios, announced a 1,000-chip GHz graphene
Companies like Samsung and bet on the graphene and has designed one of the first rollable displays, transparent, flexible and tactile.
works in the future Nokia mobile phone flexible, that can be stretched and folded, semitransparent and self-cleaning.
