2D materials applications
2D materials hold promise to enable disruptive technologies with the potential to truly revolutionize ICTs, materials and composites, energy, health, space and many other more.
Although a thrilling amount of patents and knowledge has been produced in just over ten years, a small number of devices and products including Graphene and related 2D materials are commercially available, such as mobile touch-screens by Powerbooster and Samsung, cycling helmet and shoes by Catlike, padel and tennis rackets by Head and soon a Graphene-enhanced lightbulb by Graphene Lighting.
