̽��ֱ��Graphene Flagship – one of Europe’s first ten-year, 1bn Euro flagships in Future and Emerging Technologies – has been launched.

̽��ֱ�� spin-out will work with the newly-established Cambridge Graphene Centre. 

A major research initiative which will create a European network of academics and companies working on graphene has been approved, with the ̽��ֱ�� of Cambridge set to take a leading role.

Researchers are aiming to develop a new class of materials with remarkable properties using one atom-thick substances such as graphene and other two dimensional crystals in a new collaborative project.

Researchers have discovered a crucial recipe for improving the characteristics of graphene devices for use as photodetectors in the next generation of pholtovoltaic devices for telecommunications and energy harvesting.

Cambridge is to lead the technology roadmap towards a €1 billion European programme to conduct research on graphene - a versatile substance, stronger than diamond, which researchers say could trigger a “smart and sustainable carbon revolution”.
