Unravelling the Power of 2D Materials: Revolutionizing Flexible Devices

by Ram K. Gupta (Editor)

Overview

Exploring the properties of 2D materials has become a focal point in the realm of flexible devices, driven by their exceptional optical, electrical, thermal, and mechanical characteristics. From electronics to sensors, these materials are transforming industries with their diverse applications.

Topics include fundamentals, manufacturing and challenges, biomedical applications, and flexible photovoltaics. It covers state-of-the-art development in 2D materials and their emerging applications in flexible devices, diving into atomic-level reactions and structure-performance relationships to offer a more thorough understanding of the field. Each chapter provides details about the synthesis and characterisation of 2D materials, providing new directions to scientists, researchers, and students to better understand the principles, technologies, and applications of two-dimensional materials for emerging applications

Researchers and graduate students focused on the study of 2D materials in both physics and chemistry will find this book insightful. In addition, it will be of use to both engineers developing devices using flexible 2D materials as well as professionals working with consumer electronics.
