The History Behind the Graphene Hype Graphene and hype have gone hand in hand ever since its discovery back in 2004. The hype peaked around 2010 when Dr. Geim and Dr. Novoselov, the scientists who characterized it successfully, won a Nobel Prize in Physics for their...

Click here to view our e-book, "Innovating at the Nanoscale." "Making graphene was a science problem. We developed an engineering solution." General Graphene Corporation is a pure play CVD graphene foundry manufacturing large-area, roll-to-roll (R2R), chemical vapor...
Navigating the uncharted waters of CVD graphene application development
General Graphene discusses the highly complex process of taking graphene out of the laboratory and into the real world. Graphene – the first ever two-dimensional nanomaterial – was isolated and characterised in 2004 by Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov, for which...
Graphene at the Nanoscale and Beyond
Since its discovery, graphene has been viewed as one material when, in truth, graphene is a spectrum of carbon-based materials. Carbon comes in many familiar – yet very different – forms, such as diamond and graphite. The same is true for graphene. The properties...
General Graphene Corporation: Harnessing the versatility of graphene
Gregory Erickson, Founder and CFO of General Graphene Corporation, details the properties of graphene that make it a versatile and sought-after material. Graphene has long been touted as ‘the next big thing’ in the world of materials science since it combines high...
Changing How We Think About Graphene
THOUGHT LEADERS Changing How We Think About Graphene with General Graphene Corp. Interview conducted by Skyla Baily At the Advanced Materials Show, AZoM spoke with James Sherrill from General Graphene about the future of graphene and how their novel production...
The journey from CVD graphene innovation to commercialisation
Gregory Erickson, Founder and CFO of General Graphene Corporation, explores the current uptake for graphene innovation and the organisation’s journey from discovery to commercialisation. When General Graphene was founded in 2015, we assumed that once we demonstrated...
Low cost, industrial scale, high-quality CVD graphene production
A ‘wonder material’ trapped in the lab for almost two decades, graphene’s potential has finally been unlocked with the production of cost effective, high-quality CVD graphene. Graphene has been heralded as a ‘wonder material’ since its discovery by Professors Andre...
