Graphene: Properties, Preparation, Characterisation and Devices

Graphene: Properties, Preparation, Characterisation and Devices, Second Edition provides a comprehensive look at the methods used to prepare and analyze graphene. Since the first edition's publication, there have been many advances in the understanding of graphene, in particular, its key properties and most relevant applications. Updates to this new edition include chapters on liquid exfoliation production of graphene and scanning transmission electron microscopy of graphene. New sections cover graphene's thermal, optical, mechanical, chemical and biocompatibility, with special attention paid to transport properties, a main barrier to the realization of commercial applications. Reviews the preparation and characterization of graphene, covering the latest advances in liquid exfoliation production and the scanning transmission electron microscopy of grapheneIncludes a new section dedicated to the properties of graphene (thermal, transport, optical, mechanical, chemical) to reflect the latest understanding of this important materialDiscusses the most relevant applications of graphene, such as biomedical, sensing, energy and electronic applications INDICE: Part 1: Preparation of Graphene 1 Epitaxial growth of graphene on silicon carbide (SiC) 2 Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of graphene films 3 Chemically derived graphene 4 Graphene produced by electrochemical exfoliation 5 Graphene produced by liquid exfoliation 6 Bottom-up synthesis of graphene and graphene nanoribbons Part 2: Characterization of graphene 5 Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (STEM) of graphene 6 Scanning tunneling microscopy of (STM) of graphene 7 Raman Spectroscopy of graphene (edges, defects, size effect, .must be added) 8 Other spectroscopic methods for graphene characterization (EELS, REELS, EDS, XPS, ARPES, Auger) Part 3: Properties of graphene 9 Mechanical Properties 10 Thermal Properties 11 Optical Properties (excitons in nanoribbons) 12 Chemical Properties (chem. stability and functionalization) 13 Electrochemical Properties 14 Biocompatibility Part 4: Electronic Transport Properties of graphene 15 Electronic Transport in graphene: towards high mobility 16 Electronic Transport in bilayer graphene 17 Single Charge Transport in graphene 18 Effect of adsorbents on electronic transport in graphene 19 Graphene spintronics Part 5: Graphene applications 20 Graphene FET 21 FET molecular (gas) sensors 22 Graphene biosensors 23 Graphene batteries 24 Graphene capacitors 25 Graphene temperature sensor 26 Graphene nanoelectromechanics (NEMS) 27 Molecular barriers
