Now, scientists have developed a simple and powerful method for creating resilient, customized, and high-performing graphene: layering it on top of common glass. This scalable and inexpensive process helps pave the way for a new class of microelectronic and optoelectronic devices–everything from efficient solar cells to touch screens.

The collaboration–led by scientists at the U.S. Electricity billy elliot karaoke Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory, Stony Brook University (SBU), and the Colleges of Nanoscale Science and Engineering at SUNY Polytechnic Institute–published their results February 12, 2016, in the journal Scientific Reports.
