Many times, the revolution in technology comes from new materials, such as the invention of plastics, which has changed people's lives in all aspects. At present, graphene has received great attention as a new material. In fact, graphene is a type of carbon that has ultra-high strength, thinness and extensibility, and will be able to change the appearance, feel and even shape of digital products. Below, we will take a closer look at what the graphene material has in the end.
Harder than steel
It is easy to damage, which has always been a bottleneck in the development of digital products. However, if digital products such as mobile phones can use graphene as a casing in the future, it will become rock solid. According to the report of the American Chemical Society, graphene has a hardness of 200 times that of steel and is clearly very durable.
2. Rubber-like ductility
According to researchers at Columbia University, graphene has a certain ductility and can stretch 20%. That is to say, graphene is actually a flexible material similar to rubber. Samsung has been researching graphene transistors to produce flexible screens. In addition, graphene also has a certain degree of water resistance, and it is expected to be applied to a new generation of waterproof equipment.
3. Light and thin features
With excellent ductility, one can stretch graphene to a level that is thin enough, even to be transparent. This means that if mobile phone manufacturers can use the new material of graphene, not only can the phone be more durable, waterproof, but also lighter and thinner.
4. Incredible battery life
We have mentioned graphene in the article on battery technology development, which is very likely to replace lithium batteries in the future and become the next generation battery standard. Researchers at Northwestern University have successfully developed graphene and silicon batteries, and it takes about 15 weeks to charge for about a week, which is amazing. Obviously, if the phone can use graphene batteries in the future, then charging once a week will no longer be a dream.
5. Interconnecting with the human body
Aravind Vijayaraghavan, a Ph.D. student at the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom, found that graphene has the characteristics of being interconnected with organisms, which has a very positive impact on health-detection wearable devices. Using graphene as a sensor, it will be able to monitor and scan the human nervous system. It is conceivable that there will be “mental health†monitoring devices and applications in the future.
Future prospects
Having said that, many friends will think that graphene is expensive, but it is not the case. It just needs new technology to "catalyze." At present, Samsung claims to have mastered the method of using graphene as a semiconductor component. At the same time, many technology companies such as IBM, SanDisk, and Nokia are studying graphene (and some well-known universities). I believe that soon, we will You will see the actual product coming out.
