Scientists have discovered a new material that is only one atom thick, is stronger than diamond and conducts electricity 100 times better than silicon used in current computer chips. Wait, this stuff has scientist “abuzz” and comes in grams, what are we talking about again? Thanks to Justin Carlett for the link.
"It is the thinnest known material in the universe, and the strongest ever measured," Andre Geim , a physicist at the University of Manchester, England , wrote in the June 19 issue of the journal Science. "A few grams could cover a football field," said Rod Ruoff , a graphene researcher at the University of Texas, Austin , in an e-mail.
