Chemist, or physicist, want to ELI5 this? I got lost within the first paragraph. I don’t understand what the point is: is it, how can we make more, or how can we make less? Or something else?
Its a potential scalable way of producing large amounts of thin, contiguous printed-on graphene sheets. You could in theory print on a dye layer and then hit it with a laser to produce graphene traces, as opposed to first creating graphene containing paint and painting it on (not thin, contiguous or aligned) or doing vapor deposition (slow, needs high temperatures that could melt your material, inconsitent, and can produce thicker or non-graphene carbon deposits)
Oh! Ok, the value of cheap graphene sheets at scale, I understand. I mean, in a layman’s way of understanding.
