Graphene, a layer of carbon atoms only one-atom thick but about 200 times stronger than steel, is also one of the best electrical and thermal conductors on earth. In spite of the impressive list of promising prospects, graphene has a darker side: it does not have a band-gap, once it is conducting it cannot be switched-off.
