graphanenoun
An extended two-dimensional hydrocarbon, of general formula (CH), derived from graphene by adding a hydrogen atom to each carbon atom alternately on each side of the plane.
Wikipedia
Graphane
Graphane is a two-dimensional polymer of carbon and hydrogen with the formula unit (CH)n where n is large. Partial hydrogenation results in hydrogenated graphene, which was reported by Elias et al in 2009 by a TEM study to be "direct evidence for a new graphene-based derivative". The authors viewed the panorama as "a whole range of new two-dimensional crystals with designed electronic and other properties".

Graphane
Graphane is a two-dimensional polymer of carbon and hydrogen with the formula unit n where n is large. Graphane should not be confused with graphene, a two-dimensional form of carbon alone. Graphane is a form of hydrogenated graphene. Graphane's carbon bonds are in sp³ configuration, as opposed to graphene's sp² bond configuration, thus graphane is a two-dimensional analog of cubic diamond. The first theoretical description of graphane was reported in 2003 and its preparation was reported in 2009. Full hydrogenation from both sides of a graphene sheet results in graphane, but partial hydrogenation leads to hydrogenated graphene. If graphene rests on a silica surface, hydrogenation on only one side of graphene preserves the hexagonal symmetry in graphane. One-sided hydrogenation of graphene becomes possible due to the existence of ripplings. Because the latter are distributed randomly, obtained graphane is expected to be disordered material in contrast to two-sided graphane. Annealing allows the hydrogen to disperse, reverting to graphene. p-doped graphane is postulated to be a high-temperature BCS theory superconductor with a Tc above 90 K.
