柔性顯示成現實 首款石墨烯電子紙問世
China has developed a new electronic paper, a huge breakthrough that will catapult the material to a new level.
中國已經開發出了一種新型電子紙，這一巨大的突破將會將該材料推進到一個新的水平。Guangzhou OED Technologies in partnership with a company in Chongqing has developed the world's first graphene electronic paper.
廣州奧翼電子科技公司與重慶某公司合作研發出了世界首款石墨烯電子紙。Graphene is the world's strongest and lightest known material; a single layer of graphene is only 0.335 nanometers thick, and it can conduct heat and electricity.
石墨烯是世界上最強大，也是最輕的已知材料。一層石墨烯只有0.335納米厚，它可以導熱和導電。
The new electronic paper can be used to create hard or flexible graphene displays, used in electronic products such as e-readers and wearable smart devices.
這種新型電子紙可用來製作剛性和柔性石墨烯電子紙顯示屏，應用於電子閱讀器和可穿戴智能設備等電子產品。Compared with traditional e-papers, graphene e-paper is more pliable and has more intensity and its high-light transmittance means optical displays will be much brighter.
與傳統電子紙相比，石墨烯電子紙柔韌性更強、強度更高，它的高透光率使光學顯示屏亮度更好。In addition, graphene is derived from carbon, meaning production costs will be much lower than for traditional e-papers, which use the rare, expensive metal indium.
此外，石墨烯來源於碳，這意味着其生產成本將比使用稀有貴金屬銦的傳統電子紙低得多。The graphene e-paper will be put into production within a year.
據悉，這款石墨烯電子紙將在一年內投入生產。
