From Idea to Reality… Graphene began as a theoretical "model system" of  a material  that allowed investigation of properties for its carbon-based  relatives  including graphite and carbon nano-tubes.  In winning the  Nobel Prize  in Physics in 2010, Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov showed that   graphene itself had the potential to outperform traditional materials in  a wide  range of applications.  Producing graphene in higher volume   manufacturing environments represents the next challenge in bringing  this  exciting material to market in next generation touch screens,  transistors,  solar cells, and other products.

This webinar will show how theory, modeling and simulations helped  to design  experiments that confirmed theoretical predictions and  accelerated graphene's  development, and how it can be used now to  investigate the effect of defects  and impurities on the properties of  graphene produced in real manufacturing  environments.  Register today so you can discover how the lessons  learned in developing graphene can  be applied to improving the properties and  performance of any material.
