The ICFO demonstrates graphene-based technologies at MWC 2016

The Graphene Pavilion at the 2016 MWC included the ICFO's (Institute of Photonic Sciences in Barcelona, Spain) exciting stand, that showcased and demonstrated graphene-based technologies like a flexible and transparent light sensor and a fitness wearable.

Prof. Frank Koppens, Group Leader at the ICFO, stated that: "The sensors and wearables are working very well but we don’t have yet a plan to make a large number. Once a company decides to invest, this can rapidly change. So anything between 2 and 5 years is foreseeable."
