Graphene is a one atom thick layer of graphite that is the strongest and thinnest material known to exist. It is 200 times stronger than steel yet flexible, highly conductive of both electricity and heat, and transparent. Potential applications of graphene include use in solar cells, touch screens, batteries, racquet construction, and tattooing teeth to detect dental issues.
3. Graphene can be described as a
one atom thick layer of graphite.
Its is the basic structural element
of other allotropes , including
graphite,carbon nanatubes, and
fulluerenes.
Graphane is the strongest,thinnest
material known to exist.
5. ‘Graphene’ was first isolated in the lab
by,
Andre Geim Konstantin Nuselov
(University of Manchester-England in 2004)
7. The Amazing Properties of graphene
It is thinnest material imaginable( 0.345 nm thick.)
It is the strongest material measured.
200x stronger than steel (1,100TPa/125 GPa)
Stiffer than diamond
It is electrically conductive-best known so far.
1,000,000x more conductive than copper(current
density @room temp.)
8. Electrons behave as light inside graphene
It conducts heat even better than
diamond(500 W m-1K-1)
It is flexible :The first elastic 2D crystal.
Good for flexible,wearable devices.
It is transparent:
One atom-thick layer sheet
absorbs 2.3% visible light
9. • Replacement for Solar cells,touch screens,new
computers,batteries,etc
10. The Uses Of Graphene
• A RACQUET MADE WITH
THE WORLD'S
STRONGEST MATERIAL
• HEAD'S YOUTEK
GRAPHENE SPEED PRO IS
ONE OF THE FIRST
RACQUETS TO DELIVER
BOTH CRUSHING POWER
AND PRECISE CONTROL.
14. SUMMARY
Thinnest material ever , 1 atom layer thin
Strongest material and still flexible
Only surface
Best thermal conductor
One of the best electrical conductors
Transparent
