We have long heard about miraculous properties graphene, and its uses are varied. Recently, we have made interesting progress in terms of the practical application of some of these theories: the use of graphene for data transmission in telecommunications. material can replace optical fiberoffering much greater speed and stability on internet connections and other types of data-related applications.
The research comes from University of Wisconsin-Madison, where scientists report that they have succeeded in creating the smallest ribbon-like structure ever created from graphene. And therein lies the potential for it to be used in the future, because it’s not news that the material will work better for data transfer, but until recently, structuring it in a useful way for this has been the biggest challenge.
“Previous research suggests that to be viable for telecom technologies, graphene must be structured in an unacceptably small size over large areas, a manufacturing nightmare. In our research, we developed a scalable fabrication technique to create the smallest ribbon-like graphene structures to date, and found that by slightly reducing the width of the ribbon, we can begin to break into the field of telecommunications.“

The result of the research was the desire to create a ribbon-like carbon structure that would be the narrowest ever created. And the scientists achieved this by using ribbon-shaped polymers to “sand” the material until it was as narrow as possible, but perfectly structured. This is the most important part for the practical application of the method, as Spiegel explains:
The new 6,000 km cable promises to reduce latency by up to 50%.
“This is very useful because there are no good manufacturing techniques to achieve the size we have achieved with 12nm thick over a large area. And there is no difference in creating a standard between the one centimeter scale we work with and the giant six inch plates useful for industrial applications.“
