Perhaps title had a typo?

Can't find a single page about fluorographane

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=fluorographane&t...

Not a typo. Fluorographene is the sp² form (Nair et al. 2010). Fluorographane uses the -ane suffix to denote full sp³ saturation — same convention as graphene → graphane. The sp³ hybridization is what creates the bistable C-F orientation that stores the bit.
