ABSTRACT
Almost everything surrounding us is made up of carbon-based
materials, of them, one of the most important material is possibly
graphene. It is a 2D crystalline form of carbon, one atom thick. It has
garnered immense interest in the field of material sciences due to its
unique set of physical, electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties.
This has set it up as a major alternative to many of the conventional
materials in a wide variety of fields. This paper discusses some of the
uses and applications of graphene, along with techniques employed
for its synthesis and some of the most promising prospects of this
wonder material.

1. INTRODUCTION
Our world as we know it today is made of materials
that have widely different origins and properties.
These materials form the backbone of contemporary
society. Amongst these materials, it won’t be an
overestimation to say that our life depends the most
on carbon-based materials. We are surrounde
