Book description

Explore the Practical Applications and Promising Developments of Graphene

The Graphene Science Handbook is a six-volume set that describes graphene?s special structural, electrical, and chemical properties. The book considers how these properties can be used in different applications (including the development of batteries, fuel cells, photovoltaic cells, and supercapacitors based on graphene) and produced on a massive and global scale.

Volume One: Fabrication Methods

Volume Two: Nanostructure and Atomic Arrangement

Volume Three: Electrical and Optical Properties

Volume Four: Mechanical and Chemical Properties

Volume Five: Size-Dependent Properties

Volume Six: Applications and Industrialization

This handbook describes the fabrication methods of graphene; the nanostructure and atomic arrangement of graphene; graphene?s electrical and optical properties; the mechanical and chemical properties of graphene; the size effects in graphene, characterization, and applications based on size-affected properties; and the application and industrialization of graphene.

Volume six is dedicated to the application and industrialization of graphene and covers:

• The design of graphene- and biomolecule-based nanosensors and nanodevices
• The use of graphene-based field-effect-transistor (GFET)-like structures as sensing substrates and DNA aptamers as sensing elements
• Recent advances in graphene-based DNA sensors
• The antibacterial properties of graphene-based nanomaterial (NM)
• The chemical and physical properties of graphene and its current uses
• The development of sensitive and selective field-effect transistors (FET) biosensors based on graphene
• The unique properties of ordered graphene (G)
• Various methods currently employed for the production of graphene nanocomposites
• The supramolecular chemistry of graphene derivatives, and more
