Advanced Materials: The DNA of Disruption

Published on06 FEB 2017

The need to make products faster, stronger, smaller and lighter is driving the development of new and enhanced materials with properties out of reach of prior generations. Goldman Sachs Research’s Craig Sainsbury discusses three of the most promising – graphene, nanotechnology and OLEDs – and their potential applications from cancer treatment to water filtration.  

Graphene is probably one of the most exciting advanced materials we’ve looked at...it’s stronger than steel; it’s a better conductor than things like copper that are currently in semiconductors.
