Graphene is incredible. We've known for a while about graphene's potential but until recently the methods for producing quality graphene were too inefficient/inconsistent. Dr. Chris Sorensen at Kansas State discovered a process to create pristine graphene synthetically (vs from graphite with the scotch tape method mentioned in the article). He is currently bringing this to industry at HydroGraph Clean Power. Exciting times.

I thought this was going to be a version of the story that appeared this week in New Scientist but it’s a different aspect of electron behavior, in the other article it talks about reducing friction in moving parts https://www.newscientist.com/article/2514425-physicists-can-...

2d materials are so awful to work with but keep yielding these stunningly beautiful results so physicists must persist.

Why should we change how we teach about electricity, when we can change electricity to confirm to how we teach! :)
