Abstract

Carbon nanostructures are a leading material in the nanotechnology field. The discovery and research of carbon materials has considerably contributed to the advancement of modern day science and technology. After the discovery of fullerene and single walled carbon nanotube (CNT), which are zero-dimensional and one-dimensional carbon nanomaterials respectively, the researchers have tried to isolate 2D graphitic material or to make 1D nano-ribbons from 2D crystals.
