Torn Apart by Metal, Graphene Knits Itself Back Together Again
via popscie:
Once punctured by wayward metal atoms, the wonder material graphene can stitch itself back together, healing over with a new patch of two-dimensional carbon atoms. This new finding sheds more light on the strange properties of graphene, and it could even lead to new graphene creation strategies. […]
