A single layer of graphite is called graphene. Graphane has extraordinary electrical, thermal, and physical properties.
Graphene is produced by mechanical exfoliation or repeated peeling from graphite. Graphane cound be used to replace silicon in high-performance electronic devices.
Nanoribbons are thin strips of graphene or unrolled single-walled carbon nanotubes. They will change in optics and electronics. Their 2D structure, high electrical and thermal conductivity, and low noise makes an alternative to copper for integrated circuit interconnects.

Nano ribbons are one attom thick.
Graphene nanoribbons possess semiconductive properties that can be an alternative to silicon semiconductors. They can sustain microprocessor clock speeds in the vicinity of 1 THz.
