Graphene is in the realms of mad science. It's crazy awesome as to what it can do. IBM's scientists created a graphene-based circuit that is 10,000 times more powerful than existing alternatives. It can even send a text message to your friends.
IBM Research director of physical sciences Supratik Guha says, "This is the first time that someone has shown graphene devices and circuits to perform modern wireless communication functions comparable to silicon technology." The researchers managed to send a text that said, simply, "IBM."
When will graphene start hitting the scene? We're exited already!
