Two scientists share this year's Nobel Prize in Physics for groundbreaking work in the field of materials with special properties
Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoslov of the University of Manchester won the Nobel Prize in Physics for their research into the properties of graphene
Graphene is a surface of carbon, one atom thick.
The new winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics that was officially announced today, Professor Andre Geim from the University of Manchester, will arrive in Israel in a month to be hosted as one of the main speakers at the Nano Israel 2010 conference.
Gaim, head of the Nano Center of the University of Manchester in the UK, will arrive in Israel between November 7-10 and be hosted at the Nano Israel 2010 conference, the official conference that brings together all nanotechnology activity in the State of Israel, and hosts senior scientists, companies and investors from over 30 countries . Geim will talk about the "magic of flat carbon", a lecture in which he will expand and elaborate on his Nobel Prize-winning research, and on the "secret of the magic of nanomaterials", and how they form the basis for the discovery of graphene, the winner of the Royal Swedish Academy Award. In addition, Geim will explain in his lecture what is the great benefit that this material will bring to humanity.

There is theory and there is practice. Sometimes it takes 50 years before something can be used and by then there is already a new and better discovery/invention for application.
They definitely deserve it!
Graphene will enter our lives more and more over the years.
And they will surely discover new applications for its use that will exceed any imagination.
