Abstract
A suitable technology for the preparation of graphene based on versatile wet chemistry is presented for the first time. The protocol allows the wet chemical synthesis of graphene from a new form of graphene oxide that consists of an intact hexagonal σ-framework of C-atoms. Thus, it can be easily reduced to graphene that is no longer dominated by defects.

Chemistry with graphene and graphene oxide-challenges for synthetic chemists.

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the state-of-the-art for the chemical functionalization of graphite, graphene, graphite oxide, and graphite-based nanomaterials is presented.

Mechanism of graphene oxide formation.

TL;DR: This work shows that formation of GO from graphite constitutes three distinct independent steps, and that the reaction can be stopped at each step, and the corresponding intermediate products can be isolated, characterized, and stored under appropriate conditions.

High-quality graphene via microwave reduction of solution-exfoliated graphene oxide

TL;DR: A simple, rapid method to reduce GO into pristine graphene using 1- to 2-second pulses of microwaves is reported using microwave-reduced GO (MW- rGO) as the channel material and into particularly high activity for MW-rGO catalyst support toward oxygen evolution reactions.

Electric Field Effect in Atomically Thin Carbon Films

TL;DR: Monocrystalline graphitic films are found to be a two-dimensional semimetal with a tiny overlap between valence and conductance bands and they exhibit a strong ambipolar electric field effect.

The rise of graphene

TL;DR: Owing to its unusual electronic spectrum, graphene has led to the emergence of a new paradigm of 'relativistic' condensed-matter physics, where quantum relativistic phenomena can now be mimicked and tested in table-top experiments.

Two-dimensional gas of massless Dirac fermions in graphene

TL;DR: This study reports an experimental study of a condensed-matter system (graphene, a single atomic layer of carbon) in which electron transport is essentially governed by Dirac's (relativistic) equation and reveals a variety of unusual phenomena that are characteristic of two-dimensional Dirac fermions.
