Abstract: Systems and method for producing graphene on a substrate are described. Certain types of exemplar systems include lateral arrangements of a substrate gas scavenging environment and an annealing environment. Certain other types of exemplar systems include lateral arrangements of a graphene producing environment and a cooling environment, which cools the graphene produced on the substrate. Yet other types of exemplar systems include lateral arrangements of a localized annealing environment, localized graphene producing environment and a localized cooling environment inside the same enclosure. Certain type of exemplar methods for producing graphene on a substrate include scavenging a first portion of the substrate and preferably, contemporaneously annealing a second portion of the substrate.

Abstract: A method of making 2D material such as graphene includes introducing a purge gas into a gas confining space within a reaction chamber to purge the gas confining space of oxygen; introducing a donor gas into the gas confining space within the reaction chamber; moving a forming layer within the gas confining space within the reaction chamber when the donor gas is within the gas confining space; and heating the forming layer within the gas confining space to a temperature sufficient to form 2D material while the gas confining space is open to a surrounding atmosphere.

Abstract: The present disclosure is generally related to a stent with one more layer of graphene added to a stint that will be inserted into the body of a patient. Such a stint may be inserted into a vein or artery of a patient in order to increase blood flow, to maintain blood flow, or to prevent a vein or artery from collapsing. The graphene added to the stint provides improved biocompatibility of the stint and reduces risks associated with conventional stints. Stints consistent with the present disclosure may also include growth factors that help bind the stint to specific receptors or target cells. Stints of the present disclosure may include a monolayer, a bilayer, or multi-layers of graphene adhered to the surface of the stent. The stint may then coated with a growth factor.

Abstract: A 2D material such as graphene is produced on a forming sheet disposed on a carrier and exposed to a donor gas within a furnace. A first furnace surface is disposed immediately adjacent to and spaced apart from the forming sheet to define a volume. A purge gas is used to purge the volume of undesirable molecules, such as oxygen, and then a donor gas is introduced into the volume to supply an element or molecule necessary for the formation of a 2D material. Multiple carriers and forming sheets are moved in a train into the furnace during the presence of the donor gas, and each forming sheet is heated to a temperature sufficient to form 2D material on the sheet. The furnace is constructed of a nonreactive material, such as quartz, and the first furnace surface is provided by a quartz plate. Gas passageways and gas ports are formed in the quartz plate with the ports extending through the first furnace surface.

Abstract: Single and multiple cell batteries are provided with built-in controllers that monitor the cell or cells and provide a safety disconnect when certain monitored conditions are detected by the controller. Preferred single and multiple cell batteries have their cell or cells within a container having a positive terminal and a negative terminal. The built-in controller monitors the cell or cells for each of the following conditions: over temperature, short-circuit, overcharge, and over-discharge and the controller provides a safety disconnect when one of the monitored conditions exist.
