"This is an outstanding book on graphene and related materials, including carbon nanotubes, graphene oxide (GO), and reduced graphene oxide (R-GO). Four chapters cover the fabrication, fundamental properties, and characterization of carbon-based materials and devices. This book will be useful for researchers working in graphene materials in the applied physics, chemistry, and materials science areas." --MRS Bulletin

Graphene and Related Nanomaterials: Properties and Applications outlines the physics and the applications of graphene-related materials, including graphene, graphene oxide and carbon nanotubes. The first chapter introduces the physics of graphene and related nanomaterials. The following sections deal with different applications spanning from gas sensors to non-volatile memories and supercapacitors. The book also covers spintronics for graphene. In each chapter, specific applications are explained in a detailed way. This book will appeal to materials scientists and engineers looking to understand more about the nature of graphene and how it is currently being used.
