Electronics From Your Ink-Jet...

The Daily Mail, UK
‘Wonder material’ graphene is so tough a sheet as thin as cling film can support an elephant and there’s nothing that can match its conductivity – now scientists have found a way of printing it.

The researchers, from Cambridge University, made flexible electronics from graphene using a humble home printer, bringing devices such as wearable computers a step closer.

The scientists created a graphene-based ink and used a modified Epson printer to produce the thin-film circuits.
