Description

This book brings together innovative methodologies and strategies adopted in the research and developments of Advanced 2D Materials. Well-known worldwide researchers deliberate subjects on (1) Synthesis, characterizations, modeling and properties, (2) State-of-the-art design and (3) innovative uses of 2D materials including:

  • Two-dimensional layered gallium selenide
  • Synthesis of 2D boron nitride nanosheets
  • The effects of substrates on 2-D crystals
  • Electrical conductivity and reflectivity of models of some 2D materials
  • Graphene derivatives in semicrystalline polymer composites
  • Graphene oxide based multifunctional composites
  • Covalent and non-covalent polymer grafting of graphene oxide
  • Graphene-semiconductor hybrid photocatalysts for solar fuels
  • Graphene based sensors
  • Graphene composites from bench to clinic
  • Photocatalytic ZnO-graphene hybrids
  • Hydroxyapatite-graphene bioceramics in orthopaedic applications
