Graphine Electrodes for SuperCaps the Easy Way.
Graphine Electrodes for SuperCaps the Easy Way.
So, you spray a bit of Graphite Oxide solution on an old DVD, pop it in the DVD writer, and voila!

This is actually an improvement on that one from Rice University last year that coated paper with grapite oxide, then printed patterns with a CO2 laser.
I think I like this one better. You can get a Dell or HP branded OEM Lightscribe burner just about anywhere for $40 or less. Sounds like something a home hobbyist could figure out without too much trouble. What's the going price for Graphite Oxide power or solution?

Another article on this here.
I don't see why this method can't be adapted to deposit graphene directly onto integrated circuits, which ought to be a big fat hairy deal.

I have visions of an fun car anti-theft device dangling from the rear-view mirror, fully charged, and beggin for a would be theif to touch it. Can you say "Shiny Leathal Object"....
But seriously, this tech combined with OLED flexible screens means a whole new gen of handheld gadgetry, not to mention the ability to put more stuff in weird places, like a semi-transparent stick on display GPS Nav unit right on your windshield...

Comments were interesting, but need a few headsmacks. I'd imagine a power pack swap would work well, but the way you'd do it is not having the owner of the car own the power pack. Sure, they might own at least one, but for a long trip, you'd swap that out for one you lease, and you swap those out. The leasing companies would deal with maintenance and such, with agreements working around location much the same way companies deal with train cars, semi trailers, etc. With these, the person getting stuff moved doesn't own the trailer, and neither does the driver/carrier all the time. I'll confess to not being familiar with how exactly it all works, but trailers are swapped out all the time and the cargo gets where it needs to be without trouble.

Oh my. As for depositing Graphine directly on silicon wafers (integrated circuits) now we have http://nextbigfuture.com/2012/03/simple ... oduce.html
You know they sell dry ice up at walmart. I have a ball mill (rock tumbler filled with stainless steel ball bearings). This could get fun. It's all within the reach of an amateur experimenter. That's the best part.

That's what they use in the video IIRC.I wonder if label-burning LabelFlash/LightScribe CD drives would also work.
Now, get some copper solution, some COTS, and maybe something to make resistors out of, and an inkjet set up to do multiple layers. A few layers of supercap to power, and then print out the circuit. Only thing left is the microchips, at least for now. COTS can make single device items, like individual transistors and diodes, only the more complicated stuff needs to be made in a chip fab.
