I’ve had a pencil with a graphite battery since the first grade.

Have they finally found a way to mass produce that stuff yet? Its been this matador cape of click bait and hopey dreams for a long time now.

I know 15 years since its discovery is not long but still the press keeps pimping out hints and guesses for clicks.

My father worked on this. he never could get it to work. His name is on 27 patents. One of those everyone uses every day.

Interesting: 9 Uses for Graphene.

[HandyDandy]

Graphene is a zero-gap semiconductor, because its conduction and valence bands meet at the Dirac points. The Dirac points are six locations in momentum space, on the edge of the Brillouin zone, divided into two non-equivalent sets of three points. The two sets are labeled K and K'. The sets give graphene a valley degeneracy of gv = 2. By contrast, for traditional semiconductors the primary point of interest is generally Γ, where momentum is zero. Four electronic properties separate it from other condensed matter systems.

Calling B.S. and clickbait on this article

Will the calls it makes and receives be better somehow?

I don’t care how fast it charges - how long does it take to run down a full charge?

I can charge the dang thing overnight, long as the charge lasts me all day. I’m not one of those that lives on my phone.
