Graphene conducts electricity better than copper
Graphene, a one-atom-thick carbon material, dramatically outperforms copper in electrical conductivity, promising revolutionary advancements for future electronics and flexible technologies.
Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms, conducts electricity far better than copper at room temperature. Its electrons behave like massless particles, zipping through with minimal resistance. This superior conductivity, up to 200,000 square centimeters per volt-second compared to copper's 40, means graphene could power smaller, faster electronics.
