The house itself produces electricity and changes color
Graphene is a layer of carbon that forms a hexagonal grid, with a distance of 0.142 nm between carbon atoms. Graphene membrane has the same thickness as the atomic diameter.
A new material can help future homes generate electricity and change the color of their home.
Graphene is a layer of carbon that forms a hexagonal grid, with a distance of 0.142 nm between carbon atoms. Graphene membrane has the same thickness as the atomic diameter. It has some unique properties. It is, for example, harder than steel, but it is easily stretched. The conductivity and thermal conductivity of graphene is very large.
Not only producing electricity, graphene can also help the owner

Andre K. Geim and Kostya Novoselov of the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2010 for their creation, purification, identification and characterization of graphene.
Now two scientists and their colleagues at the University of Manchester are looking to combine graphene with some other ultra-thin material to create a coating of solar panels, the Telegraph reported.
This coating is about the same thickness as paper but very flexible. It can absorb light to produce electricity. Therefore, one can use it to cover the houses. Once the coating is on the wall or roof, it absorbs light to generate electricity for the home appliance. In addition, the coating can also change color according to human control. However, the team did not explain the mantle change mechanism.
If cell phone companies want to remove batteries from their cell phones, they can put new paint on their phones. If the batteries go away, future phones will be much thinner than today's phones.
