This meme right here. It can do everything, yet we don't have it everywhere. Is manufacturing it that hard, is it that costly? Having filters from it would be fantastic, but more than anything I'd love some sanic fast transistors from them. Memephene when?

It's one atom thick, so I imagine it's pretty hard to manufacture.

Silicon was hard to manufacture as well, but we eventually got it.

Its difficult to make which is why its so expensive. Graphene capacitors are ludicrously expensive but their energy density is tons smaller than lithium.
Basically when forming graphene you have to stop these layers of carbon from latching on laterally. You have to physically stop the layers from sticking to another layer. Chemically this is done usually by keeping the carbon ionized but that requires a lot of energy to maintain

This looks strangely arousing.
