My Materials Engineering Undergrad thesis (in 2010) was on synthesizing graphene for Li-Ion battery applications. It was interesting stuff at the time but I haven't kept up with the research. Our lab was using ESRP (electrostatic spray reductive precipitation) I'm sure by now a lot of other better techniques. All I can really remember from my thesis was I had a throwaway line describing graphene as a single layer of hybridized SP2 Bonded carbon atoms and examiner spent what felt like 15 mins of my allotted defense time grilling me about it (in reality it was probably only 1 or 2 mins but I was so freaking nervous at the time felt like it was dragging on forever)... |
