Nanomaterial Being Produced By the Ton
Because of its light weight Graphene is the ideal substitute for copper for aerospace defense against emerging weapons technologies such as electromagnetic pulse as well as lightning strike protection for the aerospace market.

Graphene is an extremely low density material, almost an atomic-scale chicken wire made of carbon atoms and their bonds. It has been the focus of much research because of its exceptional electrical, mechanical and optical properties. It holds great promise in renewable energies.
Among the so far underutilized advantages Graphene offers are that it is fifty times stronger than steel, and it has five times the conductivity of copper, with only one quarter of the density.
Graphene may replace copper at nanoscale widths in future
Washington, June 5 : In a new research, scientists have experimentally demonstrated the advantages that graphene may have over copper for interconnects in future generations of integrated circuits.
Graphene Has High Current Capacity, Thermal Conductivity
Recent research into the properties of graphene nanoribbons provides two new reasons for using the material as interconnects in future computer chips. In widths as narrow as 16 nanometers, graphene has a current carrying capacity approximately a thousand times greater than copper – while providing improved thermal conductivity.
Researchers use ordinary camera flash to create graphene
The production of graphene has just become a whole lot easier. Northwestern University scientists have demonstrated that graphite oxide can be converted instantly to graphene by exposing the material to a pulse of light from an ordinary camera flash.
Graphene said to outperform copper interconnects
PORTLAND, Ore.—Pure carbon interconnects, cast as tiny ribbons of graphene, will outperform copper interconnects below 30 nanometer line widths, according to researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech).
Graphene Emerging as the Miracle Material of the New Millenium : CleanTechnica
Move over, silicon: graphene is ready for its closeup. Discovered just a few years ago, graphene is a sheet of graphite the thickness of just one atom. It can be processed like silicon to make electronic devices, which makes it easier to manipulate than the current “it” material, carbon nanotubes. Without the breakdown problems that beset silicon at the nanoscale, graphene is bringing the dream of a molecule-sized computer closer to reality.
