Resumen
MENDEZ ROJAS, Miguel Ángel y ENCISO BARROS, Alan Enrique. Graphene: in between serendipity, Scotch-tape and immigrants. Educ. quím [online]. 2011, vol.22, n.1, pp.72-74. ISSN 0187-893X.
Graphene possesses surprising properties which may open a myriad of novel applications and new technologies to arise from it. The development of methods for its preparation has lead several research groups to study its interesting physical and chemical properties. The story behind how two Russian scientists started working on graphene, how they serendipitously find a way to produce it and how their work created the great expectation that we have today around this material is as interesting as the future perspectives and technological applications that may change the way how electronic devices, flat screen displays, disposable plastic electronics and many other daily technologies are made and used. This is a short story of how Andrey and Kosya won a Nobel Prize in Physics.
