Ultra Thin Graphene Condoms

Ultra Thin Graphene Condoms

Ultra Thin Graphene Condoms Development In one of the incredible applications of graphene in the health industry, Scientists in the University of Manchester are developing ultra thin graphene condoms.  Though current condoms are almost excellent barriers of unwanted contaminants, they are heavy and thick — which is the reason they …

Pure Graphene

Pure Graphene

American researchers discover how to create pure Graphene US researchers who worked on ways of making electrical contacts on graphene made two important discoveries in the process. Through use of a novel fabrication technique they have managed to create stacked layers of the finest quality of pure graphene yet. Simultaneously, …

Graphene Lunar Elevator

Lunar Elevator

Graphene the perfect material for a Lunar Elevator Scientists at Columbia University conducted a study which revealed that graphene retains most of its mechanical properties even when it has been stitched together from small fragments. This discovery may have been the first step toward large scale manufacture of carbon nanotubes, …

Graphene solar cells

Graphene solar cells

Investing in Graphene – Graphene Solar Cells Graphene is considered the next generation material for solar panel construction where it is expected to be a primary component in solar cells. By coating it with a silicon film, it retains its transparency and conductivity, thereby making it the best material for …

Carbon nanotube transistors

Carbon nanotube transistors

The world’s first carbon nanotube computer – Carbon nanotube transistors Manufacturers will soon be able to replace silicon with carbon nanotube transistors in making transistors used in electronic devices. This is because carbon nanotubes address most of the shortcomings that silicon has. Carbon nanotubes are the ideal replacements for silicon …

Graphene Oxide

Graphene Oxide

Graphene Oxide We will soon retrieve data from a broken device, thanks to graphene oxide’s refractive index and fluorescence that can be manipulated. A new material promises the possibility of recovering data even from a broken device. Graphene, the ‘wonderful material’ has unique properties that include; unmatched strength, flexibility, lightness, …
