Due to the properties of the chemical bonds between carbon atoms, graphene is very tough: it can be bent to large angles without breaking and withstand high pressures.

In the two decades that have followed since its discovery, graphene has been pivotal in accelerating research into 2D materials, and it has already been leveraged into numerous applications across a broad range of sectors.

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been a key technology used to correlate topographical structures with local electronic properties at the nanoscale, such as graphene.
