Graphene : The future material
Graphene is the worlds first two-dimensional material. It is one atom thick layer of carbon atoms forming honeycomb crystal lattice,hexagonal structure. It is one of the strongest material ever discovered. It is hundred times stronger than steel and is yet flexible. It is better conductor of electricity than copper also a good conductor of heat.
Scientists all over the world had been working on graphene and have come up with some great uses.
Graphene Display
It is proposed that with graphene we could turn our walls,windows and glasses into screen which could be prepared by 3D Printing.With graphene our smartphone will turn very thin, could be probably folded.
Solar Cells
Graphene could probably be used in power generation.A solar cell made out of graphene would be thirty times more efficient than the most efficient solar cells we have today.
Graphene Battery
Grapehne based super capacitor are going to be very light and would replace current heavy batteries we have in our vehicles. These super capacitor will be capable of holding high charge and would discharge like batteries. It is proposed this would even revolutionize electric vehicles.
Compact Computing Device
Graphene will help us produce highly compact computing devices with high efficiency and low power consumption.
Microphones
Graphene based microphone which is being designed is capable of recording frequencies of range less than 1 Hz to 200000 Hz.They would be eventually best microphones we ever had.
There is lot more to Graphene than discussed in this article.We would see Graphene around us in near future.
