Spectroscopic and Microscopic Investigations of 2D Nanomaterials

Recently, the global scientific community has shown an exponential increase in interest for 2D nano-materials' applications. The approach aims to search for 2D nanomaterials with improved physical and chemical properties. The 2D material shows response to a unique self-assembly pattern through ionic, covalent, and van der Waals force of interaction, minimizing the assembled 2D nanomaterials. In this chapter, we will primarily focus on the characterization of graphene-derived 2D nanomaterials using several instrumentation techniques. To get a broad knowledge of their properties, the 2D nanomaterials will be investigated using both spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. The essential properties correlated with application are always associated with morphology, composition, oxidation state, thermal stability, crystalline nature, magnetic responses, and viscosity. The efficiency of 2D nanomaterials can be tuned with the property analysis from metal-ornamented organic material to organic derivatives or vice versa. In addition to functional graphene, the input of other functional compounds has been initiated for the growth of 2D nanomaterials in response to viscoelastic responses, tensile strength, conductivity, and other related properties to material application.
