The Buzz Episode 6 - Graphene
Update: 2020-08-14
Description
In this episode of The Buzz we take a deep dive into the wonder material that established Manchester’s place at the forefront of global scientific innovation – graphene.
Manchester is known as ‘Graphene City’ – and with good reason. It was here that the 2D material was first isolated in 2004 by two of our physicists - Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov.
Today, graphene continues to fascinate scientists and industrialists alike. The material has been used in everything from trainers and tennis racquets to cars and clothing. It has been used in surfacing, batteries and even to create a sieve that can desalinate water – potentially making seawater drinkable.
