Graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a 2D honeycomb structure. It has
better electrical, thermal, mechanical, and optical properties than many other materials
that exist in nature. These exceptional properties have generated revolutionary changes in
a wide variety of applications including optoelectronic, electronic and sensing devices.
There have also been substantial developments in graphene-based nanomagnetism,
metamaterials, and composites which could serve as the building blocks of technology for
the future. The scope of these research areas is immense and graphene-based
technologies are a major area of materials research.
This reference text will provide a comprehensive review of the recent advances in
graphene-based research and technology. The book will combine the necessary
background, theory, and a broad spectrum of cutting-edge applications of graphene and its
types. It will also explore the latest synthesis techniques including CVD and the novel high
yield exfoliation method. Recent advances, including electronic, photonic, optoelectronic
and sensing applications, and membranes and coatings, will be presented in detail. The
book will conclude with a discussion of future prospects of graphene-based research.
The book will provide a comprehensive resource relating to graphene and related
technologies. Research and development in the field is progressing at a rapid pace, and the book will gather the latest advances in one volume. These advances will include magnetism
in graphene and graphene metamaterials, which are not covered in existing books.
