Layering several elements can be a magic formula, and the same is true for nanomaterials.
Mar Garcia Hernandez, work package leader at the Graphene Flagship explains the potential of experimenting with graphene and related materials (GRMs).
Before realizing the potential of graphene and related materials (GRMs), the term was used to describe single layer nanomaterials that could be integrated with graphene.
Graphene describes a single monolayer of graphite. Tightly bound in a hexagonal honeycomb structure, these carbon layers are just one atom in height. This means you’ll need to stack three million layers to create graphene just a single millimeter thick.
Hailed as the first-ever two-dimensional crystal, graphene is noted as a super-material because of its unrivaled strength, conductivity and lightweight.
Since its isolation in 2004, a discovery which achieved the Nobel Prize for Physics, the nanomate
