Abstract

The nineteenth century saw many wondrous discoveries, elemental discoveries, reports of new materials, and electromagnetic phenomena. In the year 1859, Benjamin Collins Brodie recognized the highly layered structure of thermally reduced graphite oxide, and he reported the atomic weight of the material in the Philosophical Transaction of the Royal Society of London. Later on, in the year 1916, the layered structure of graphite was established by X-ray diffraction [1–5]. Figure 7.1 shows an atomic scale honeycomb lattice of graphene made of carbon atoms.
