Graphene, Beyond Lab Benches: Peking University and BGI Researchers Publish Review in Science

On October 10th, Peking University and BGI research teams, led by Professor Lin Li and Ph.D. student Zhao Yixuan, published a review paper titled “Graphene, Beyond Lab Benches” in the journal Science. The article focuses on the current state of graphene applications beyond the laboratory and explores its future development directions.

Since its discovery, graphene has drawn significant attention from both academia and industry due to its exceptional electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties. However, despite the enormous potential demonstrated by high-quality graphene produced in laboratories, large-scale production and practical applications still face many challenges.

The paper delves into the bottlenecks in applying graphene to electronic and optoelectronic devices and highlights the technical difficulties encountered during industrialization efforts. It further discusses potential solutions to overcome these challenges and presents an outlook on graphene’s future industrial applications and the revolutionary impact it may have on existing technologies.
