The world's thinnest material

German and British scientists have made the world's thinnest material at just 1 / 200,000th of a second. This type of membrane is connected by hexagonal carbon atoms in the form of a honeycomb, which, if stacked, requires up to 200,000 new layers of the same thickness as a single strand of hair.

University professors from the University of Manchester (UK) say the film could revolutionize the way it is used to speed up computing and research new drugs. In addition, it can be used as a micro filter, separate the various components in the air ...
