Graphene: the Strongest Material

Filed in archive Materials by Dr. Joseph Kim on July 31, 2008

Graphene is the strongest known material. Graphene was discovered in 2005 and was recently tested and found to be the strongest material known to man. Mechanical engineering professors at Columbia University tested graphene's strength at the atomic level by measuring the force that it took to break it. They created indents in graphene using a tiny diamond probe. Graphene may have a promising future in the semiconductor industry by acting as transistors in microprocessors. Sound interesting?
