Graphene Nanomaterials

Since the discovery of graphene as a distinct allotrope of carbonwith its potential to further increase the speed of microprocessorsbeyond 30 peta hertz there has been a void in resources for studentsand practitioners-until now. This book provides information onthe synthesis characterization application development scaleupstability analysis and structure property relations of graphenenanomaterials.Different methods of fabrication of graphenes are included andthe author discusses cost of production starting from capital costsoperating costs and total optimal costs. These different processes tomake graphene include: Roll to Roll Transfer Process Low PressureChemical Vapor Deposition Atmospheric Plug Flow Reactor APFRDispersion Using NMP and numerous others. Sharma details thediffusion time calculations in intercalation and exfoliation processesusing both Fick and hyperbolic diffusion models.
