Reversible Hydrogenation of Graphene
GRAPHANE (Single-layer 2D Hydro-Carbon)
Graphane, a chemical derivative of Graphene Formed by attaching a hydrogen atom to each of
the carbon atoms in the original graphene sheet Hydrogen alternates between above and below the sheet
Graphene and Graphane have drastically different electronic properties Graphene is the best conductor known to man
(at room temperature) Graphane is an electrical insulator
Graphene-Graphane reaction is entirely reversible ONR Researchers, Geim & Novoselov, Awarded 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics

Precision Time & Timekeeping
Precision Time and Timekeeping (PTT): ONR funding for basic research in atomic clocks
has led to significant advances in PTT. The US Naval Observatory (USNO) maintains the DoD
Master Clock with 60 Cs (Cesium-133) atomic clocks, 20 Hydrogen maser clocks, and two Cesium Fountain atomic clocks. The DoD Master Clock is a Critical National Defense
Technology (MCTL Section 16). ONR funding sustains the Atomic Clock industrial base
