Hailed as the wonder material of the 21st century, graphene presents a wide range of possibilities in terms of its technological and industrial uses. This reference text provides a comprehensive review of the recent advances in graphene-based research and technology. The book combines the necessary background and theory alongside a broad spectrum of cutting-edge applications of graphene and its types. Recent advances, including electronic, photonic, optoelectronic and sensing applications, and membranes and coatings, are presented in detail. Special chapters are devoted to the most contemporary attributes of graphene, mainly its metamaterial, magnetic and non-linear properties. The book concludes with a discussion of future prospects of graphene-based research. Aimed at both advanced researchers and those new to the field, the book is suitable for research scholars, scientists, teachers and the wider academic community.
