Graphene, molecular structure C016 / 8509
Graphene. Computer model of the molecular structure of graphene, a single layer of graphite. It is composed of hexagonally arranged carbon atoms (spheres) linked by strong covalent bonds. Graphene is very strong and flexible. It transports electrons highly efficiently and may one day replace silicon in computer chips and other technology applications. Graphene was discovered by Andre Geim in 2004

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of graphene, a revolutionary material that has taken the scientific world by storm. In this computer-generated illustration, we are presented with a mesmerizing view of graphene's single layer of graphite, composed of hexagonally arranged carbon atoms linked by robust covalent bonds. The crystal-clear white background accentuates the elegance and simplicity of this two-dimensional wonder. Its organic and flat nature is beautifully captured, revealing its characteristic hexagonal pattern that forms a net-like structure. This artwork serves as a testament to the incredible advancements in nanotechnology and molecular modeling. Graphene's exceptional properties make it an incredibly promising candidate for various technological applications. Not only is it remarkably strong and flexible, but it also exhibits unparalleled electron transport efficiency. Scientists speculate that one day graphene may even replace silicon in computer chips and other cutting-edge technologies. Credit for discovering this extraordinary material goes to Andre Geim in 2004, whose groundbreaking work opened up new avenues for research and innovation. As we delve into the realm of nanoscience, this image serves as a reminder of how far we have come in understanding complex compounds like graphene. Russell Kightley's artistic representation masterfully captures both the beauty and potential held within this remarkable molecule – an awe-inspiring glimpse into our future possibilities.
