Kaner Lab researcher Maher El-Kady painted sheets of graphene an atom thick on a plastic surface and bombarded it with controlled laser light (he used a DVD burner.) The result: a stunningly thin supercapacitor which could store up a large amount of electricity in minuscule time frames. A battery made of this material could charge your cell phone for a full day’s use in two seconds, and is much lighter than current metallic batteries.

The discovery of Graphene Supercapacitor will change our life as much as the wheel did and maybe even more…
