Copper's days are numbered, and a new study could hasten the downfall of the ubiquitous metal in smart phones, tablet computers, and nearly all electronics. This is good news for technophiles who are seeking smaller, faster devices. Researchers have discovered that they could enhance the ability of graphene to transmit electricity by stacking several thin graphene ribbons on top of one another.
