Scientists, Sir Andre Konstantin Geim and Sir Konstantin Sergeevich Novoselov, both born in Russia, physics professors at the University of Manchester, discovered (in 2003.) an amazing material of the 21st century - called graphene. They were awarded, in 2010, the Nobel Prize in Physics for their work. In simple terms, graphene, is a thin layer of pure carbon; it is a single, tightly packed layer of carbon atoms that are bonded together in a hexagonal honeycomb lattice. In more complex terms, it is an allotrope of carbon in the structure of a plane of sp2 bonded atoms with a molecule bond . * Lingva Technical English ProjectsGraphene

It's a supermaterial that is quietly changing the course of technology. Here's why you should get exited about it: * It Will Turn Computers Into Transformers graphene can be changed into different configurations on the fly by simply manipulating it with lasers * Your Smartphone Will Get Even Smarter Different sheets could handle different functions at the same time in the space of a tiny sheet of paper * Your Batteries will Charge in Seconds it charged in seconds * Your Internet Connection Will Be One Million Times Faster an antenna that can transfer an entire terabit of data in one second Lingva Technical English ProjectsGraphene
* You'll Know Your Blood Composition in Real Time for uses in medicine as it could act as a great bioelectric sensor to monitor things like glucose levels, cholesterol, and DNA sequencing * Your Water Will Taste Awesome it could also be used as an ultrafiltration medium to filter water supplies or even desalinate water * Your Shirt Will Charge your Laptop Just, you know, plug your laptop into your shirt and you're good to go.
