Nanowiggles: graphene nanomaterials with 'tunable functionality in electronics'

Cue lawsuit from The Wiggles in 3 2. Just kidding. No one sues scientists, right? Right? Courtroom drama aside, gurus from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have just uncovered what's apt to be the most germane graphene discovery in our lifetime. Or, at least 2012. The goal here is to actively work on an alternative to silicon-based technologies, enabling our gizmos to continue getting slimmer and slimmer without losing core functionality. Pure graphene isn't a semiconductor, but it can be altered to display "exceptional electrical behavior." The latest breakthrough is cutely known as graphene nanowiggles, describing
