Solution-chemistry approach to graphene nanostructures
Graphene has many novel optical and electrical properties desirable for applications in future electro-optical devices. Graphene nanostructures are especially attractive for their wide range of tunable properties. Here we describe the recent progress and challenges in the solution-chemistry approach to graphene nanostructures. This approach could not only lead to new materials with various well-defined properties, but also enable their production in large quantities.
