Graphene synthesis: relationship to applications

Edwards, Rebecca S.; Coleman, Karl S.

Abstract

Graphene is a true wonder material that promises much in a variety of applications that include electronic devices, supercapacitors, batteries, composites, flexible transparent displays and sensors. This review highlights the different methods available for the synthesis of graphene and discusses the viability and practicalities of using the materials produced via these methods for different graphene-based applications.
