Silk and Graphene Fusion: A New Era for Flexible Electronics

Individual silk protein molecules, or “silk fibroins” (blue), are deposited on a graphene surface surrounded by water (green and red spheres) and grow into an atomically precise two-dimensional (2D) sheet. Controlled deposition of silk fibers could lead to numerous biodegradable electronic devices.
