The measurement of high electrical conductivity in a synthetic metal at room temperature was one of many observations discussed at the Conference on Intercalated Compounds of Graphite held in La Napoule, France last month. Although these compounds have been studied—largely by chemists—for some 40 years, physicists have recently taken a renewed interest in them because they offer the potential for technological applications as well as the opportunity to explore electronic and other properties of materials of variable dimensionality.
