Graphene definition

2016.07.20

Graphene is a new material which is composed of carbon atoms. Is a planar thin film composed of six corners of a honeycomb lattice, which is composed of carbon atoms and SP2 hybrid orbitals.
Graphene is the most thin material is the most resilient material, the fracture strength of steel is much higher than the best 200 times. At the same time, it also has a very good flexibility, stretching to reach its own size of 20%. It is the nature of the thin, the highest strength of materials if graphene with an area of 1 square meters of a hammock.
Graphene is currently the most promising application is to become a substitute for silicon, manufacturing ultra micro transistor, used to produce the next super computer. With graphene to replace silicon, the speed of operation of the computer processor will be hundreds of times faster.
