It’s been a while since Nokia introduced their Morph concept phone which they envision as the future of mobile phones, but since then, we’ve neither heard nor seen any progress from their end regarding this highly futuristic device. However, that doesn’t mean folks in other parts of the globe aren’t aspiring for the same thing.

As a matter of fact, Korean scientists have already discovered a way to produce on a large-scale basis nanomaterial films that can be used for such flexible devices like the Nokia Morph. They make use of a new revolutionary manufacturing process that utilizes a so-called conventional chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique to create graphene film which is only 10cm in diameter. Furthermore, grapheme is described to be:

a one-atom-thick, honeycomb-like nano material structure that can handle 100 times more electric current than copper and transfer electrons 100 times faster than monocrystalline silicon, used in conventional semiconductors.

So the implications and usage of this new material is indeed extensive. It can even be used to replace indium tin oxide which is used in producing touchscreen panels and solar cells.

Samsung is rumored to be making plans already to work with the great minds behind this new technology, but we won’t be surprised if other companies such as Nokia hop onboard as well.
