The gold rush of graphene research has passed over ten years history since its first isolation in 2004, which ignited one‘s enthusiasm on 2D materials such as h-BN, transition metal dichacogenides, gr
Indium is used as ITO (indium-tin oxide) astransparent conducting films (TCF) in displays and touch screens. Polycrystalline silicon is the semiconductor material used in the thin film field effect tr
Graphene oxide, which is the chemical exfoliation product of graphite powders, is probably still the only 2D material that can be made reliably into single layer dispersions with large sizes and high
Chemical vapour deposition (CVD) is a cost-effective technique for growing high-quality graphene on catalytic metal subtrates such as Cu, Ni and noble metals. The technical challenge is to nondestruct
Although graphene and carbon nanotubes show similar physical and chemical properties due to their sp2 bonding nature, use of such materials in applications is a completely different challenge. Among a
As the global energy consumption has been accelerating at an alarming rate due to the rapid economic expansion worldwide, increase in world population, and ever-increasing human reliance on energy-bas
Nanostructured materials have attracted wide attention for energy storage. The reduced dimensions result in better accommodation of the strain associated with chemical and structural change, new react
Nature has long-inspired chemists with its ability to stabilize ephemeral chemical species, perform chemical reactions at unprecedented rates and selectivities, and synthesize complex molecules and in
The expanding development and production of nanomaterials have diverse and reach potential benefits in many fields,such as food,commodity,drugs,medical devices,etc.
