"More than a century passed between the moment when the Swedish chemist Jöns Jakob Berzelius purified silicon, in 1824, and the birth of the semiconductor industry"

In contrast, I think we are doing pretty well in being only a year or so away from mass market adoption of graphene 14 years in.

".. he urges students to write up their work in less than forty-eight hours. “I was just told by a company that has licensed one of our technologies that we beat the Chinese by five days.”


Though he does seem more interested in churning out patents than in churning out graphene.

The article is 4 years old - but contains pertinent observations.

Ayl - a little harsh? The orders have started arriving, and I think we can expect an acceleration of such through 2019.And NR has said the company doesn't break for Christmas til the 21st - let's see if there's more news before then, I strongly suspect there will be (tho of course I may be wrong)...

What fiasco last year? If you want to base your investments on tweets then good luck to you Ayl... Neills reference to advent this year is to give a versarien related gift away every day which he is doing. It is likely we will get one more piece of news before Xmas simply due to the rate this company is developing and releasing news but none has been promised.

Neill’s advent calendar this year is a personal thing and nothing to do with company news. It’s giving away stuff via Twitter.

Loads of news last week doesn’t therefore mean loads of news this week.

It's unfortunately getter no to be a habit. You would have thought he would have learned from last years fiasco. Perhaps people are getting fed up with his teasing of shareholders, who want to see orders not a wind up by a listed company ceo?But there are still a few days left to salvage the situation so I like others sit on our hands and hope.....

McLaren phone; Wot,no graphene??

An opportunity missed - unless the quick charging is a graphene related battery.

[club sandwich] 12/12/2018 07:05

I think the advent calendar is broken... ;-)

There were some of these speakers at the GEIC, just some reading whilst eating your porridge......... https://www.ora-sound.com/

Doesn't October 2019 relate to the dissertation? News before then with NR's 'keep watching the news for updates and then I'll come in and talk to you all' :)

[1teepee] 12/12/2018 01:54

That's because a year is a long way off.

[1teepee] 12/12/2018 01:53

Patience means a long time. Hope I am wrong

[ridicule] 12/12/2018 01:23

I agree foolishben,that was one of the tweets I was referring to, particularly when the student talked about a presentation next October and NR replied "That seems a long way off".

[foolishben] 12/12/2018 01:10

Ridicule I concur, especially this response to an engineering student who asked him for advise about writing a dissertation on graphene in construction.

More Neill Ricketts Retweeted Paul Snape
keep watching the news for updates and then I'll come in and talk to you all :)Neill

Not sure how one could fail to detect the what Neill is hinting that there?

[festario] 12/12/2018 00:37

Ridicule, I don't detect any such thing.I hope you're right and I'm wrong.Another juicy order would really light a fire under the share price

[ny boy] 12/12/2018 00:14

A juicy rns pre Christmas too set us up for a Santa rally and into the new year.

[ridicule] 11/12/2018 23:38

News imminent in my view. See NR’s two latest tweets!

[loglorry1] 11/12/2018 22:39

XG Sciences have a tech sheet showing their inks at 15% and 19% Graphene concentrations see data sheets here at 19% £40/kg ink requires Graphene <£210/kg.

£40/kg ink is derived from tweet sent out by Neill today referencing article which stated Graphene inks 25x cheaper than silver based inks currently about £1000/kg

Yet another data point which suggests prices claimed here of up to $100,000/kg are far far too much.

[ridicule] 11/12/2018 22:36

Only 8 working days until 21 Dec. NR tweeted a pop song with patience as it’s theme. I will not be selling!!

[axotyl] 11/12/2018 22:31

Totally off topic, but couldn't resist BBC news clip on what's currently annoying the US Republican Party, getting upset about media bias:

Search Images on Google (top right of the Google home page) with the word 'idiot'....

So cool.
