A battery the size of a iphone carrying more energy than an entire Tesla pack... I always wondered how those star trek phasers could carry the energy they needed..
All laser weapons use the same power source in science fiction. They use a micro fusion reactor that's why they never run out of electricity. Even Tony Stark's arc reactor is a fusion reactor minitarirized.
No iphone sized battery Will ever hold the same charge as a Tesla car battery. For this, the battery has to go nuclear. There is a clear distinction between energy from transforming the atom nucleus, which is nuclear energy which is accessing the 'weak force', one of the four fundamental forces. And between energy from tapping into the electromagnetic force, again one of the four fundamental forces, which only manipulates electrons around the nucleus but doesn't affect the nucleus itself. Hydrogen is the best user of electromagnetic force for storage and conversion of energy, particularly chemical energy to heat. Even a liquid hydrogen battery the size of an iPhone can't be enough for a car's full miles range and nothing can beat a liquid hydrogen battery.

Great video.

I think the battery manufacturers will have something to say about that.

I'm not an expert in energy storage, but I am familiar with existing energy storage designs and have never heard of anything remotely on the scale of iPhone powering a Tesla energy densities.

@@ExtantFrodo2 Graphene supercaps will have more energy than Li-Ion but I'm pretty sure that density claimed here won't be possible. I think he needs to vet his sources.

Like, broad swaths of tech just obsolete overnight the moment we get large-scale, minimal-defect production of the stuff and the wherewithal to do what we want with it.
Why? Conductivity is 1.4 times that of copper. Why you hating on copper? Copper is amazing. Does having 40% increase in conductivity really blow everything else out of the water? I mean copper pretty awesome already, so I don't see why we would expect such huge leaps forward by getting to graphene.

So the part from 5:52 to 6:12 is absolute bullshit... Nevertheless a good video!
Hey, thanks for the comment. so would you say that First graphene Firestop is BS? firstgraphene.net/applications/fire-retardancy/ i would like to know your opinion.
4:02 why they use CH4(methane) than CO2(carbon dioxide)? Itis less dangerous , more cheap and i think can be more pure(the molecule its smaller) Another question the cooper band its charged with electric curent or samething? I ask it because that can help oriented and order the carbon(C) atoms.
The reason is that it takes more energy to break the CO2 bonds but I heard that they are working on some technologies to actually use CO2. For your second question, its not charged, but i could be wrong. What they explain is that it is a property of the copper itself that facilitates the process when heated with temperatures of 700˚C+
@@SubjectZeroScience I heard that the reason why they can't make a space elevator out of this process is because, even though it is high quality... the space elevator ribbon needs to be perfectly made. Is there not some way they could inspect and correct the imperfections to create suitable graphene for a space elevator?
I'm not sure if I have the facts entirely clear but I was led to believe that to grow defect free graphene on a surface like copper then it first becomes a necessity to have a defect free copper surface. Is this correct or incorrect? It led me to think about how I could utilise 1~10nm copper nano particles plated in nickle to polish the copper surface with just enough abrasion to smooth out any defects but if the MIT guys have figured out how to do it using industrial quantities of copper film then that's pretty fantastic really.
Unless what they have is actually graphene sheet but which has defects but this doesn't detract from the accomplishment, it only means that with some additional quality assurance procedures they may very well have cracked the problem and that's fantastic.
From their paper, its not clear if its defect free. However they do mention that the copper was refined in order to optimize the production quality. To be honest we will eventually get there in terms of purity because there is a LOT of interest for this material, which I will talk about in later videos, so stay tuned.
I'm wondering a step further.....if a graphene belt could be utilized by depositing directly onto it, reusing the belt over and over, and simply use micro "scrubbers" to either remove all excess copper atoms after deposition but before burning, or to find another way. I'm thinking a graphene sheet as a substrate instead of copper might be beneficial.
If I am understanding your thinking correctly, if you deposited carbon atoms onto existing graphene then I would have thought the end result of this would be 2 layer graphene but separating one layer from the other without causing defect's would likely be problematic.
How did you figure the energy density for a battery the size of an iPhone that would replace the batteries of a Tesla? I thought that the theoretical maximum for chemical storage was about the same as hydrocarbons, or perhaps a small multiple of that -- not orders of magnitude greater!
Everything I have read about graphene batteries has a theoretical energy density about 10 times that of lithium ion. In other words, this guy is full of shit.
I wonder if there's any way to get the roll of copper in and out of the gas chamber without leaking, something like pushing it through a bath of mercury (even though that would degrade the copper) such that your graphene would not be limited in length to the length of the copper roll. That way you could perhaps roll all the graphene into a pure graphene ring that could be used as a link in a super strong chain or something Also I can see that if the copper doesn't need a seed, multiple domains of graphene would weed themselves at once and grow together. I would think there would be defects at the seams where the growing domains meet.
@@iamchillydogg precisely, the length of the ribbon is still limited to the space incide the starting vacuum chamber. I just thought it would be cool to be able to create an indefinitely long ribbon
and another question. How they split the two elements? the graphene film from a cooper layer. what method can be used. its easy to do it and not make damge to the graphene or the roll cooper?
Apparently that is not the problem at all. From what i got form the paper, they are having trouble with the fact that the Graphene sheet roll onto itself. so its not sticky. I have to look more into this.
Wait...carbon nanotubes are tubes made of a 1-dimensional layer of carbon whose atoms are arranged in a repeating hexagon pattern. ...That's what graphene is
@@slavkosky It may be possible to create carbon nanotubes from graphene, but it is far from obvious whether that would be the most efficient way to produce them.
There are better alternatives to space elevators, that only only require materials we already have. - Skyhooks, for example. - Ideally: Orbital ring(s) but... there will be still some time before those are economical. :D .... like 30 years or so XD -- really, though: orbital rings are awesome ^^
Im an engineer, in 1990, (29 years ago) I worked for a company that made diamonds... diamond substrates. After about 1 1/2 years there, testing and developing, I came to work one day and was not allowed in. Men identifying themselves as FBI told me to go home and wait for instructions. I was told to return to work 2 days later to collect my things. The ENTIRE company was SEIZED, rolled up and taken away. That was 29 years ago... Has anyone seen a DIAMOND PROCESSOR in a computer or cell phone? NOPE, and you NEVER WILL. The Government has them though. Diamond can withstand heat hundreds of times better than silicone chips.. meaning MORE SPEED, FASTER COMPUTERS. Graphene is no different. The explanation you are hearing here is quite old tech. The Government has been manufacturing high grade Graphene for more than 10 years now. Fear not, remember everything is relative. During World War 2 'plastic' was NEW... a pound of plastic, as difficult as it was to manufacture at the time, was worth a pound go GOLD... Today, we make trash bags out of plastics. The impact of Graphene is going to be epic. Light and transparent solar panels, and batteries will put EVERY oil company OUT OF BUSINESS. Im aware of one instance of a company 3D printing a lithium type cell phone battery.... It had 10 times the capacity in the same area. That was only a first attempt. Now imagine an electric car, with a graphene battery taking up the same area, with 10 times the capacity, attached to transparent solar panels in every window of the car.. AND embedded in the surface of the body panels. A car that you would never have to charge, unlimited travel distance. ALWAYS ON charging. Same with your house, these BIG UGLE SOLAR panels are OBSOLETE. Graphene solar will actually look like your roofing material, it will also be transparent, and in every south facing window of your home. Graphene will change EVERYTHING.
Can you determine the orientation of the graphene Hexagons? I read in an article yesterday that the orientation pretty much determines the strength on tge graphene.
That's not quite how it works. The orientation is important, but only in the way that neighboring “hexagons” (what we call grains) need to be in the same direction for the crystals to fuse. If they are not, then the boundary will be weaker.
I wonder if it's possible to capture energy from craft re-entry into planetary atmosphere. It might offer some additional energy for planet side activity.

I think your video is great and think graphene is future in every one's life and the many products that will never rust... Cars should never rust and the steel mills might not sell much. Refrigerators and washing machines won't rust. Older cars can be fitted with new graphene parts and the age of automobiles will go up. Just replace the worn parts and interior and you got yourself a new car with low property taxes. The Tax man ain't goanna like it and the electric cars can travel farther with this light structure Graphene. Thanks for the great video and when do you think the new batteries will hit the market? Home power for you home and hunting lodge in the woods and hills. Cheaper heat and cooling. Crank up the wind mill and charge things up. The future looks bright and all you tax slaves might have an extra dollar in your pocket when you retire. But watch out those jobs out there might not make the Standard of Living. children. Teach your well.
I think the secrete could be the extreme thermal conductivity, about 10 to 20 times of the copper. Then they could dissipate the heat with water vapor, before it could be burn in the air. But the heat energy produced is so big that even this may be impossible.
Am I watching the turning point in the History? Am I watching the end of Oil and Gas Industry? If yes, then I am happy about it. Congrats world, for cleaner world!
I was gonna say, ya it's kinda pointless to use space ships if you can make large scale graphene structures. Especially something as simple as a ribbon (albeit an insanely long one).
Back in 2015 they theorized that a Graphene battery the size of an iPhone would be able to power a Tesla, but to be honest I think its a bit of an overstatement but not "too" far from the truth. Some experiments suggest, at least, a 5x the current capacity for lithium ion batteries per kg. That means that the Tesla model 3 would need a little over 1000 Graphene batteries. I know it's not the size of an iPhone but its very promising. Take a look at www.grabat.es, they are doing some really cool stuff. I do believe though that they will be able to get at least 20x the capacity in the next 5 years. I will make a video about this so stay tuned.
Holy smokes - that would be awesome! :) I've been reading some different forums on this topics, some just enhancing the LiIon, some changing the story altogether, and am never sure what to use a best-case scenario. Thanks so much for a reply, you just got yourself a sub!
THat's bullshit, It is not possible. Even if you have a battery which somehow can manage to create 100% efficient electricity out of oxidation with 100% of the volume being used by the active element (and use the oxygen in the air as comburent) you will be very far from that energy density. CHemical batteries are limited by the energy in chemical bonds, so you will never go above the energy density of things like gasoline or hydrogen.
this is wrong in 2021 we learned that : - we can produce grephen at large scale - one iphone size graphen battery would cost a lot and would not store "a tesla" battery in terms of energy - you cannot store energy for a long time (with pure graphene unfortunalty) - silicon won't be replaced by graphen because it cannot "hold" information "long enough" - much more stuff

Excellent info and presentation, but be careful, lately we do kill the messenger ;) since 300! lol
your channel is awesome , thanks , love it all
I had Russian subtitles, but I switched saw the second time and the subtitles disappeared. Why?
I'm not sure if I have the facts entirely clear but I was led to believe that to grow defect free graphene on a surface like copper then it first becomes a necessity to have a defect free copper surface. Is this correct or incorrect? It led me to think about how I could utilise 1~10nm copper nano particles plated in nickle to polish the copper surface with just enough abrasion to smooth out any defects but if the MIT guys have figured out how to do it using industrial quantities of copper film then that's pretty fantastic really.
Unless what they have is actually graphene sheet but which has defects but this doesn't detract from the accomplishment, it only means that with some additional quality assurance procedures they may very well have cracked the problem and that's fantastic.
From their paper, its not clear if its defect free. However they do mention that the copper was refined in order to optimize the production quality. To be honest we will eventually get there in terms of purity because there is a LOT of interest for this material, which I will talk about in later videos, so stay tuned.
I'm wondering a step further.....if a graphene belt could be utilized by depositing directly onto it, reusing the belt over and over, and simply use micro "scrubbers" to either remove all excess copper atoms after deposition but before burning, or to find another way. I'm thinking a graphene sheet as a substrate instead of copper might be beneficial.
If I am understanding your thinking correctly, if you deposited carbon atoms onto existing graphene then I would have thought the end result of this would be 2 layer graphene but separating one layer from the other without causing defect's would likely be problematic.
How did you figure the energy density for a battery the size of an iPhone that would replace the batteries of a Tesla? I thought that the theoretical maximum for chemical storage was about the same as hydrocarbons, or perhaps a small multiple of that -- not orders of magnitude greater!
definitely not possible lol
Everything I have read about graphene batteries has a theoretical energy density about 10 times that of lithium ion. In other words, this guy is full of shit.
CVD, Chemical Vapor Deposition
I wonder if there's any way to get the roll of copper in and out of the gas chamber without leaking, something like pushing it through a bath of mercury (even though that would degrade the copper) such that your graphene would not be limited in length to the length of the copper roll. That way you could perhaps roll all the graphene into a pure graphene ring that could be used as a link in a super strong chain or something
Also I can see that if the copper doesn't need a seed, multiple domains of graphene would weed themselves at once and grow together. I would think there would be defects at the seams where the growing domains meet.
Both ends are in the vacuum and it unrolls from one end and rolls up on the other.
@@iamchillydogg precisely, the length of the ribbon is still limited to the space incide the starting vacuum chamber. I just thought it would be cool to be able to create an indefinitely long ribbon
Promising technology . Let's hope it does good on the Earth .
Graphene Latex is my new obsession
I want to learn all its application beyond extra sensitive condoms
Bulletproof condoms
Is Graphenoxide in bionthec and moderna and Jonson? Yes or No???
and another question.
How they split the two elements? the graphene film from a cooper layer. what method can be used. its easy to do it and not make damge to the graphene or the roll cooper?
Apparently that is not the problem at all. From what i got form the paper, they are having trouble with the fact that the Graphene sheet roll onto itself. so its not sticky. I have to look more into this.
just compare graphene and cooper melting points.
what about using flash graphene instead of methane??
What inventions humanity put into real life is just tiny fraction.
Dude, you forgot the most interesting use of this technology :
Space elevators
Space elevators are supposed to be made by carbon nanotubes, not graphene.
Wait...carbon nanotubes are tubes made of a 1-dimensional layer of carbon whose atoms are arranged in a repeating hexagon pattern.
...That's what graphene is
@@slavkosky It may be possible to create carbon nanotubes from graphene, but it is far from obvious whether that would be the most efficient way to produce them.
There are better alternatives to space elevators, that only only require materials we already have.
- Skyhooks, for example.
- Ideally: Orbital ring(s) but... there will be still some time before those are economical. :D .... like 30 years or so XD -- really, though: orbital rings are awesome ^^
@@slavkosky Carbon Nanotubes are not graphene.
Am I able to use this technique legally?
Yes, and technically it's not that expensive.
3:30 how the graphene domain size is controlled in R2R process?
Graphene + Solid State Battery = ultimate power source.
Im an engineer, in 1990, (29 years ago) I worked for a company that made diamonds... diamond substrates. After about 1 1/2 years there, testing and developing, I came to work one day and was not allowed in. Men identifying themselves as FBI told me to go home and wait for instructions. I was told to return to work 2 days later to collect my things. The ENTIRE company was SEIZED, rolled up and taken away. That was 29 years ago... Has anyone seen a DIAMOND PROCESSOR in a computer or cell phone? NOPE, and you NEVER WILL. The Government has them though. Diamond can withstand heat hundreds of times better than silicone chips.. meaning MORE SPEED, FASTER COMPUTERS.
Graphene is no different. The explanation you are hearing here is quite old tech. The Government has been manufacturing high grade Graphene for more than 10 years now.
Fear not, remember everything is relative. During World War 2 'plastic' was NEW... a pound of plastic, as difficult as it was to manufacture at the time, was worth a pound go GOLD... Today, we make trash bags out of plastics.
The impact of Graphene is going to be epic. Light and transparent solar panels, and batteries will put EVERY oil company OUT OF BUSINESS.
Im aware of one instance of a company 3D printing a lithium type cell phone battery.... It had 10 times the capacity in the same area. That was only a first attempt.
Now imagine an electric car, with a graphene battery taking up the same area, with 10 times the capacity, attached to transparent solar panels in every window of the car.. AND embedded in the surface of the body panels. A car that you would never have to charge, unlimited travel distance. ALWAYS ON charging. Same with your house, these BIG UGLE SOLAR panels are OBSOLETE. Graphene solar will actually look like your roofing material, it will also be transparent, and in every south facing window of your home.
Graphene will change EVERYTHING.
Do you get retirement fund?, I heard someone story, quite similiar
Fuck off with the bullshit. Tons of companies make artificial diamonds. The government does not have magic diamond computers and magic graphene cars.
Where are you from, the owner of the channel?
Can you determine the orientation of the graphene Hexagons? I read in an article yesterday that the orientation pretty much determines the strength on tge graphene.
That's not quite how it works. The orientation is important, but only in the way that neighboring “hexagons” (what we call grains) need to be in the same direction for the crystals to fuse. If they are not, then the boundary will be weaker.
Where is this today I wonder.
I read the titles, to infinity and beyond.
I wonder if it's possible to capture energy from craft re-entry into planetary atmosphere. It might offer some additional energy for planet side activity.
Earned a new sub love it.
Great video, not great music. Your new videos are much better
Can graphene be produced by laser sintering?
Yes, just not feasible for mass production.
Need to find a similar method to apply to Carbon nanotubes.
Looking for that as well
Imagine a plane made with graphene, graphene battery, graphene solar panels. That will run forever.
imagine graphene
How do we invest in this?
Just a suggestion; Coul you either use calmer music, or cut it all together? I found it quit distracting. Otherwise great video! Nice explanation.
Excellent!
I'm mad I had actually thought about a process so similar last month, but at least it's made ;)
Me too
This video was made a year and a half ago
I'm glad people are sharing their methods because I fear the day Graphene production gets patented by 1 company.
too late - Universal materials company ...flash joule heating method....
You do know you're not a football commentator from the 50's right? You don't have to repeat the same tonal inflections over an over when you describe the subject.
I was going to comment on this ; it's really exasperating !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
personally I loved it, brings back a lot of good memories... Hockey Night in Canada, and the CFL commentary... ahhhhh, those were the days... or daze :D feel like some days I'm staring in a Sci Movie or TV show (My Favorite Martian) from the 60's... Why does Mars have a desert the size of several thousand Sahara's.... where is my flying car?? LOL...
yesterday I saw a kidney specialist, and he wasn't shocked or put a downer on my Longevity ideas, and he knew of Ray Kurzweil and Peter Diamandis and their work... he just said, you are in good health and we'll see about keeping you that way.... you just have to do the work of maintaining a good diet and exercise... and we'll monitor the rest... Gov't Medicare (we call it OHIP here in Ontario) is a miracle... by American SS Calculator I've got 15.5 years left to reach 86... by Canadian Stats, we add 3-4 years because of our health care system.... so figure near as makes no difference, 20 years, or 2038/9 for the average... I'll be 91... if you don't know what's coming, how can you take advantage of it... :D
Whereas I'm sure there are things to critique, it would be unfair not to note that every one has their own style.
Internet commenting etiquette for the win
@Tundra14 Agreed
Very interesting
Great video. Very clear and concise. Your 3D animations were very helpful. Thanks! 👍🏼👍🏼😁
How do we make money investing into this?
Good info, but you need to do a reading check before publishing. There are a number of word use errors and misspellings.
Ow, I am aware of it. The problem is that when you finally upload it, you are just sick and tired of re-watching the video over and over again. specially when you do this after work. LOL
Chinese Reverse Engineering Department take notes about this
Great video. Just CVD = chemical vapor deposition* and not deposit.
Tell us when it leaves the lab.
Can anyone share a source for the theoretical capacity of a Graphene Battery?
I was trying to find some but I haven't found one quoting such an extreme improvement of capacitance (The one mentioned in the video saying the size of an iPhone can theoretically replace all 13 KWh sitting in a tesla )
I will make a video about this topic. Hold on!
you have gained a subscribed user!
How does tis metod works?
*Correction:*
5:11 Many _-times-_ *many* times
Planes & Planes 飞机 What’s wrong?
Interesting video,thank you....
chemical vapor deposition ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
same thing yea i know
Sounds interesting. When d' y' think I could buy some on eBay? Just a thought.
You can but graphene nanoparticles on ebay now. The quality varies though.
I think your video is great and think graphene is future in every one's life and the many products that will never rust... Cars should never rust and the steel mills might not sell much. Refrigerators and washing machines won't rust. Older cars can be fitted with new graphene parts and the age of automobiles will go up. Just replace the worn parts and interior and you got yourself a new car with low property taxes. The Tax man ain't goanna like it and the electric cars can travel farther with this light structure Graphene. Thanks for the great video and when do you think the new batteries will hit the market? Home power for you home and hunting lodge in the woods and hills. Cheaper heat and cooling. Crank up the wind mill and charge things up. The future looks bright and all you tax slaves might have an extra dollar in your pocket when you retire. But watch out those jobs out there might not make the Standard of Living. children. Teach your well.
2:30 End of intro, Summary of MIT invention starts
Amazing!!! I subbed :))
The power density claims are bunkers bro. Also, graphene is not qualified for reentry heat insulation...
Considering it barely exists that makes sense.
I think the secrete could be the extreme thermal conductivity, about 10 to 20 times of the copper. Then they could dissipate the heat with water vapor, before it could be burn in the air. But the heat energy produced is so big that even this may be impossible.
0.11 typo. It say's roll to rool in beginning graphic.
I would like to know what has the author of these cool videos studied when he was in school...
Am I watching the turning point in the History?
Am I watching the end of Oil and Gas Industry?
If yes, then I am happy about it.
Congrats world, for cleaner world!
Till the batteries need recharging.
haha no
Make ships? How about a space elevator?
I was gonna say, ya it's kinda pointless to use space ships if you can make large scale graphene structures. Especially something as simple as a ribbon (albeit an insanely long one).
Great! I subbed :)
Thanks man, I was feeling sad for only having myself as a sub! LOL
keep it up... subs are hard work these days :/
Can you make a video on space fountain
great vid. I SUBBED!
CARBONPUNK(GRAPHENEPUNK) HERE WE COME!!
Can't wait till we can roll regular thc also
Why would anyone downvote this?
5:10 Battery the size of an Iphone with Tesla capacity? Wow that's insane, any source for that info?
Back in 2015 they theorized that a Graphene battery the size of an iPhone would be able to power a Tesla, but to be honest I think its a bit of an overstatement but not "too" far from the truth.
Some experiments suggest, at least, a 5x the current capacity for lithium ion batteries per kg. That means that the Tesla model 3 would need a little over 1000 Graphene batteries. I know it's not the size of an iPhone but its very promising. Take a look at www.grabat.es, they are doing some really cool stuff.
I do believe though that they will be able to get at least 20x the capacity in the next 5 years. I will make a video about this so stay tuned.
Holy smokes - that would be awesome! :)
I've been reading some different forums on this topics, some just enhancing the LiIon, some changing the story altogether, and am never sure what to use a best-case scenario.
Thanks so much for a reply, you just got yourself a sub!
THat's bullshit, It is not possible. Even if you have a battery which somehow can manage to create 100% efficient electricity out of oxidation with 100% of the volume being used by the active element (and use the oxygen in the air as comburent) you will be very far from that energy density. CHemical batteries are limited by the energy in chemical bonds, so you will never go above the energy density of things like gasoline or hydrogen.
this is wrong in 2021 we learned that :
- we can produce grephen at large scale
- one iphone size graphen battery would cost a lot and would not store "a tesla" battery in terms of energy
- you cannot store energy for a long time (with pure graphene unfortunalty)
- silicon won't be replaced by graphen because it cannot "hold" information "long enough"
- much more stuff
But there are hope since other materals exists and AI can find most optimised for x purpuse !
Futur will be mindblowing, and futur is "almost" now !
Sounds like a real life vibranium.
Welcome to the electro-space age !
