Small start-up companies are making large volumes of graphene, the world’s thinnest material, for applications such as composites and electrodes.

Graphene is, by any measure, a story of extremes. Consisting of a few sheets of carbon atoms, it is the strongest material ever measured, it has a thermal conductivity more than double that of diamond and has a charge mobility that is among the highest of any semiconductor.
