The proposal of an ultra-thin condom made from graphene and latex brings design of the contraceptive into the 21st century. We have yet to see a prototype, but the developers at the University of Manchester…

Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms, is being touted as the material that could change how electronics are made. But it’s difficult to make graphene in forms needed for electronics. Now, researchers…
Assuming you are geeky enough to open up any mobile device on the market – a phone, tablet or laptop - the most glaringly obvious component of the device is the battery: it generally consumes up to (if…
By mimicking the structure of cork, graphene can be turned into a strong yet elastic material. Graphene is formed when graphite…
Imagine a material that is just one atom thick, 300 times stronger than steel, harder than diamond, a fantastic conductor of heat and electricity and super-flexible to boot. This might sound like the stuff…
A new composite of graphene has been found to be tougher then Kevlar, and cheaper to make. Scientists at the University of…
Graphene foam can outperform leading commercial gas sensors in detecting potentially dangerous and explosive chemicals, according…
It inspired the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics. It’s the best thermal conductor we know of. It’s a crystal stiffer than diamond, but able to stretch by 20% of its length, and can carry a current density one…
Graphene could be the key to superfast internet in the future. Graphene is a one-atom-thick sheet of carbon atoms arranged…
A combination of water and graphite could create energy storage systems which recharge in a matter of seconds and have an…
