Graphene is an allotrope of carbon. In this material, carbon atoms are arranged in a regular hexagonal pattern.
The Nobel Prize in Physics for 2010 was awarded to Russian-born Dutch physicist Andre Geim and Russian-born British physicist Konstantin Novoselov for groundbreaking experiments regarding the two-dimensional material graphene.
