Georgia Tech Researchers Create First Functional Graphene Semiconductor

A team led by Walter de Heer, professor of physics at Georgia Tech, has created the world’s first functional semiconductor made from graphene, a single sheet of carbon atoms held together by the strongest bonds known.
Semiconductors, which are materials that conduct electricity under specific conditions, are foundational components of electronic devices. The team’s breakthrough throws open the door to a new way of doing electronics. Their technology could allow for smaller and faster electronic devices and may have applications for quantum computing.
