Bend It, Charge It, Dunk It: Graphene, the Material of Tomor

[vgbaron]

"Graphene is the strongest, thinnest material known to exist. A form of carbon, it can conduct electricity and heat better than anything else. And get ready for this: It is not only the hardest material in the world, but also one of the most pliable.

Only a single atom thick, it has been called the wonder material.

Graphene could change the electronics industry, ushering in flexible devices, supercharged quantum computers, electronic clothing and computers that can interface with the cells in your body."

Director Ben Chiu, envisioned clear electronics like this tablet (tablets didn't exist at the time either) in the movie MindScans. (See the screen shot below.)

Watch MindScans to see what else Ben and author Steven L. Kent predict for us in our near future.

Unbelievable stuff. There has to be a drawback though, right? What is it?
