HOW GRAPHENE ANTENNAS COULD PAVE THE WAY FOR TERABIT WIRELESS DATA SPEEDShttp://bgr.com/2013/03/06/graphene-antenna-research-terabit-361954/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheBoyGeniusReport+%28BGR+%7C +Boy+Genius+Report%29

Interesting how they show a picture of cell tower antenna's for this article lol

This could pave the way for that cyber-technical holy grail...instant porn.

About 0.003 inches wavelength up there? I think I would propose a longwire approach. How are you going to get the signal to the antenna? Waveguide? How are you going to manufacture that? So many questions.

Yeah, but will it work on 75m?

Hey, don't look at me, you'll have to ask terabit.

Three syllables dum dum. (;->)

Ask the atoms to line up nicely in an orderly fashion? lol

If they would start shipping computers that are pre-loaded with all the porn, the Internet would become obsolete.

Just don't start talking about 'fractal' antennas... it would be self-inflicted injury...

Why what are these "fractal antennas" you speak of?

They're weather damaged, full of tiny hair line fractals. They're easily repaired with a liberal application of antenna grease and snake oil.

Fractals are promoted by some chip off the old block.
