LONDON: British scientists have devised a way of using graphene, the thinnest material in the world, to capture and convert more light than previously, paving the way for advances in high-speed Internet and other optical communications.In a study in the journal Nature Communication, the team - which included last year's Nobel Prize-winning scientists Andre Geim and Kostya Novoselov - found that by combining graphene with metallic nanostructures, there was a 20-fold enhancement in the amount of light the graphene could harvest and convert into electrical power.
