James Baker, Business Director for Graphene at The University of Manchester, talks to AZoNano about the current state of the graphene market and the key next steps needed.

Theresa May underlined the UK government’s continued support for graphene development, which is expected to play a key role in future clean technologies.

Want to learn more about our production technique? Watch this video with Prof. Nai-Chang Yeh.

 

Yeh’s principal research field is experimental condensed matter physics, with special emphasis on correlated electrons, topological matter, spintronics, low-dimensional materials, nanoscience and nanotechnology, energy research, and precise measurements using superconducting technology. Yeh received her B.Sc. degree in physics from the National Taiwan University in 1983 and Ph.D. degree in physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1988. She joined the physics faculty of Caltech in 1989 and tenured as an associate professor in 1995, and promoted to full professorship in 1997. She is the first woman professor tenured in physics at Caltech, and is an elected fellow of the American Physical Society and the American Association for the Advancement of Science in the US and also an elected fellow and chartered physicist of The Institute of Physics in UK. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

Watch David Boyd perform “Graphene: Advancing Opportunities

Michel Eid, our sales manager, presented Graphene and CealTech at the annual Enova conference. Link to the presentation and video here.

Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is the most common way of producing graphene and is performed in many ways throughout the world. Growing graphene directly into electronic devices is a highly desirable process, but has been difficult to perform due to high process temperatures (of around 1000 °C) damaging the substrate components.
