Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have created the world’s first functional semiconductor made from graphene, a single sheet of carbon atoms held together by the strongest bonds known. Semiconductors, which are materials that conduct electricity under specific conditions, are foundational components of electronic devices. The team’s breakthrough throws open the door to a new way of doing electronics.
I agree that it should be verified, but given that it was published on Nature gives hope that it will be reproducible.
Nature retracts controversial superconductivity paper by embattled physicist
(not LK99, but they’re not infallible).
Let’s wait until we see peer confirmation.
Also given that it’s from GA Tech, I’d expect it to be credible.
