New OLEDs can, for example, be integrated into touch displays, and graphene promises many other applications for the future. The graphene electrodes have an area of 2 × 1 sq cm. “This was a real breakthrough in research and integration of extremely demanding materials,” says FEP’s project leader Dr. Beatrice Beyer. The process was developed and optimized in the EU-funded project “Gladiator” (Graphene Layers: Production, Characterization and Integration) together with partners from industry and research.

Graphene is light, transparent and extremely hard and has more tensile strength than steel. It is flexible, conductive for heat or electricity. It is only 0...
