Graphene Nanomaterials will be a brief overview of the discovery, uses and applications of graphene, a distinct allotrope of carbon with the potential to drastically improve and increase the speeds of microprocessors. Graphene is a substance composed of pure carbon, with atoms arranged in a regular hexagonal pattern similar to graphite, but in a one-atom thick sheet. It is very light, with a 1-square-meter sheet weighing only 0.77 milligrams. Graphene is 100 times stronger than steel, extremely flexible, tougher than diamonds, and 13 x more conductive than copper. The book will examine the synthesis, characterization, development, and applications as well as the properties of graphene. Graphene Nanomaterials will describe in detail the different methods of fabrication, as well as the cost of production for each process. The author also plans to cover the various characterization methods, some of which include Raman Spectroscopy, Electron Microscopy and morphology Analysis. Additionally, the author plans to examine the electrical, optical, thermal, magnetic, chemical, quantum and other properties of graphenes in detail. There will be discussion of the applications of grapheme nanomaterials. Some of the applications covered in detail will include solar cells, carbon composites, and panels in wireless telephones, quantum dots and transistors. The text will describe different stability considerations including free energy considerations, epitaxial stability, Euler stability and the curvature of sheets. Graphine Nanomaterials is relevant, and timely as the grapheme market is expected to grow to a size of $126 million by the year 2020.
