What my dictionary says about graphene:

A one-atom-thick planar sheet of carbon atoms that are densely packed in a honeycomb crystal lattice; it is a basic structural element of graphite and fullerenes.

fullerene:

a form of carbon having a large molecule consisting of an empty cage of sixty or more carbon atoms

Ballistic transport of electrons and vibrations within the plane of the material is what they are seeking to preserve. Electrons are able to travel without random collisions and tend to move very fast (no electrical resistance.) Vibrations (phonons) also carry heat within the plane very quickly.
