[2] It was created for the conception, characterization, theoretical modeling, and development of transformative technologies based on two-dimensional crystals, such as graphene.
[3] In 2019, Prof Konstantin Novoselov moved to Singapore and joined NUS as Distinguished Professor of Materials Science and Engineering.
[7] In June 2012, the GRC announced the opening of a S$15 Million micro and nano fabrication facility to produce graphene products.
[9] Speaking of commercial application today scientists are using graphene for making synthetic blood and developing non-invasive treatments for cancer.
Graphene would soon replace silicon in your computer chips thus resulting in a much faster, unbreakable tablets, phone and others;[10] CA2DM is also participating on a S$50 Million CREATE grant from NRF, together with University of California, Berkeley and Nanyang Technological University, for the study of new photovoltaic systems based on two-dimensional crystals.
