Researchers at the National University of Singapore have today announced they've totally pwned current battery technology.

The latest nano-material to get nanotech researchers all hot and bothered is Graphene: a one-atom-thick honeycomb of carbon atoms that looks like it can do everything from making much more powerful batteries to replacing silicon as the semiconductor material of choice.

Nanotech has been generally portrayed two ways: either the gateway to a Sci-Fi land of abundance or the key to a grey goo scenario where micro-disassemblers turn us all into something with the consistency of baby food.
