Abstract

The journey of graphene remains quite interesting from the very beginning of its unexpected and accidental invention as 2D nanomaterial by Novoselov and Geim in the year of 2004 [1]. Several remarkably advantageous properties of graphene have unveiled a new era in nanotechnology in terms of their scientific and technological impact on the scientific community.
