The following links are a compilation of articles, press clippings and research papers encompassing both the fundamentals and commercial prospects and applications of Graphene.
For a great introduction to graphene, one cannot go past the Nature paper, “A roadmap for graphene”, by Kostya Novoselov. Commercial developments in the field of graphene applications are well covered in the articles from the Economist, Financial Times and Forbes. A more philosophical narrative on the path towards the discovery of graphene is found in Geim’s Nobel series. Lastly, the YouTube videos provides a more “hands-on” demonstration of graphene transfer, as filmed in the Ozyilmaz laboratory.
