Due to the technological advances of semiconductors, memory, and other electronic devices, the technology needed to continue the ever-evolving speed improvements is changing. Researchers have been looking at a new method for creating memory that is much faster from a substance found in the common pencil.

Graphene has great promise as a core technology in future generations of semiconductors. Researchers around the country and the globe are investing significant amounts of time and money into solving the problems facing the use of graphene in industry. One of the major hurdles under intense research is how to control the properties of graphene, which can be metallic or semiconducting. [Comments...]
