• Professor Walter de Heer recognized for his invention of graphene based electronics
• Concept "Carbon based Solutions for Urban Life" presented
Shanghai, July 29, 2011. SGL Group - The Carbon Company - has awarded the Utz-Hellmuth Felcht Award for the first time at the International Carbon Conference in Shanghai. This prestigious donation of Euro 20,000 will be awarded by SGL Group every two years in honor of its former Supervisory Board Chairman Utz Hellmuth Felcht. Honored will be outstanding scientific and technological contributions in the field of carbon and ceramic materials.
The first winner of the Felcht Award is Professor Walter de Heer from the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, GA for his merits in the area of graphene research and his revolutionary concept of graphene based nanoelectronics.
Dr. Gerd Wingefeld, member of the Board of Management of SGL Group, responsible for Technology and Innovation: "The challenges of our time are global: Energy production from alternative sources, energy storage and energy efficiency. Carbon in its various forms and applications can contribute mastering these challenges. Through his work on electronic transportation mechanisms in graphene, Prof. Walter de Heer opened the door to a new era of extremely small electronic circuits."
Individual graphite layers are known as graphene. In 2010, Konstantin Novoselov and Andre Geim were awarded with the Nobel Prize in Physics for their contributions in the field of electrical properties of the thinnest graphite layers. Graphene has the potential to replace silicon in electronics for applications such as ultra-high frequency electronics.
At the time, SGL Group presented its "Carbon Based Solutions for Urban Life" concept, which focuses on innovative applications and sustainable solutions through the use of carbon-based products - from electromobility to lightweight solutions, energy efficient infrastructures and cooling systems in buildings.
About the Utz-Hellmuth Felcht Award
Honored will be outstanding scientific and technological con¬tributions in the field of carbon and ceramic materials. This comprises polygranular carbon and graphite materials, carbon fibers and their composites, silicon carbide (SiC) based ceramics, applications of carbon and graphite in energy production, energy storage and energy savings, nanoforms of carbon as well as break¬throughs in manufacturing and new applications. Quintessen¬tial contributions in computer modeling of these materials will be considered as well.
In general, the Award will honor single scientific and technolo¬gical contributions which provided recent impact of significance on the technological area of carbon and graphite materials or have the character of a breakthrough in science.
The Utz-Hellmuth Felcht Award will be presented biennially on the occasion of the International Carbon Conferences which are held in Asia, Europe and the USA alternately. The selection of the awardees is dedicated to an International Award Committee composed of six renowned scientists and persons of high standing in industry.
About Prof. Utz-Hellmuth Felcht
• Studied chemistry and received his Ph.D. from the University of Kaiserslautern, Germany
• From 1991 to 1998 he was Board member of the Hoechst AG, Advanced Technology in Frankfurt, Germany. Subsequently he was CEO of Degussa AG and Board member of RAG
• From 1994 until 2004 he was Chairman and from 2004 to 2009 member of the Supervisory Board of SGL Carbon AG

• Walter de Heer earned his Ph.D. in Physics at the University of California in Berkeley in 1985
• From 1987 to 1997 he worked at the École Polytechnique F?d?rale in Lausanne, Switzerland
• Moved to the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1996 were he became Professor for Physics (Regents Professor since 2008).
• In 1995, Prof. Walter de Heer showed that carbon nanotubes are excellent field emitters with potential application in flat panel displays
• His discovery, that carbon nanotubes conduct electrons over relatively large distances without resistance (1998) set the basis for nanotube- and graphene-based electronics.
• In 2006, Prof. de Heer was named as one of the "Scientific American 50".
• Keck Foundation Award in 2007
• IBM Faculty Award in 2007 and 2008
• 2009 ACSIN (Atomically Controlled Surfaces, Interfaces and Nanostructures) Nanosize Prize
• Materials Research Society Medal in 2010
