"1.36 mWh/cm^3"= 1360 kWh/m^3

To GIThruster: I take back what I said about energy density, we should all go as fast as we can to convert to electric cars using graphene supercapacitors as the batteries.

Two huge discoveries at the same time, being able to mass produce graphene for the best semiconductor ever and the creation of supercapactiors.

Coating a DVD with graphite oxide? That would be CO2.

Pure graphite oxide is basically X(C2O) with some COOHs around the edges.

apparently another party discovered this independently. It's indeed graphene.

If there are any chemists here interested to explore this, please check out the note I will leave in the Mach-Effect news folder. I've been looking at this lightscribe generated graphene electrode issue for quite some time and really, we need to see if it will work with special ceramics.
