Graphene walls could make powerful electronics
Rice, Hong Kong Polytechnic physicists calculate 100 trillion could fit on a chipBY MIKE WILLIAMS

To stand a ribbon of graphene upright, it needs diamond on the soles of its shoes.

A new paper by collaborators at Rice University and Hong Kong Polytechnic University demonstrates the possibility that tiny strips of graphene -- one-atom-thick sheets of carbon -- can stand tall on a substrate with a little support. This leads to the possibility that arrays of graphene walls could become ultrahigh density components of electronic or spintronic devices.
